    i have 2 other pacmans and toads all fat healthy. I just gota get over this. I get attached to these guys too fast.

    I will tell you this. When it comes to purchasing very small froglets, there is always a risk that it may die the next day. You said the frog was the size of a penny and that tells me the frog was not out of the water more than a couple days. In that picture there appears to be no signs of illness and if the frog was active and not listless, it would have been difficult to tell if the frog had a problem.

    I'm sorry things did not work out this time, but another chance may arrise in the future.

    See if you can get ahold of Understory Enterprises. They are based in Canada and do sell pacman frogs. I believe they mostly do wholesale, but do deal with private sales occasionally.

    i can try but no more babies the person who sold me the frog said they would replace but dont seem keen on keeping contact. So honestly dont know if they will. I was told by many others canadian expo that this is too common and they say they will help out but its just a way to keep you quiet. The money the ornata was 100 dollars, i saved for that extra. My bills sky rocket. I dont have 100 for another right now I have to get medication for my dog who just survived cancer.

    I'm sorry for your loss, that's awful. Also, that is a LOT of money for an Ornate. I hope you can find another ornate later on at a more reasonable price, and I hope the seller gets back to you. Good luck.

    I found out from a few others the seller was selling half dead animals that day so there is no way the frog would have survived


    but the seller said they would replace but i am told this seller who is HUGE will say it but never replace
