Wax monkey frogs are also in that range. I found blue ones on a site from a breeder for 30$. Reg tiger leg monkey are around 15 to 20$.
    They most important thing for a centraly located viv is covering your animals when u first get them. Getting used to their new home can take months. I have 2 indoneasian whites, very shy at first, I covered them for two months. First I uncovered a side that faces nothing, then raised curtain slowly, with my new baby, I did a low cover, blue bubble wrap, and when I found her peeking at me above the cover, I knew she was ready for her view of the world.
    The best thing is whites personality, and they'll live 15 to 20 years, they eat from your fingers and like looking at you, begging fir more food like dogs, they're quite cute. U can use sticks and wood from outside, just bake at 200 for an hour. It gives a more genuine look to a viv, when there's stuff not store bought. Check my alblum, natural wood and shelf mushrooms from the wild. Get your viv running a month before u bring babies home. And keep us posted.
    What that web site?

    I'm not sure which site Ginger was referring too but there's a guy named Mike Novy who comes very highly recommended by others on this site. All of the amphibians he deals with are captive bred and he has great prices for all the frogs he carries, especially if you're looking in the monkey or tree frog arena. I'm planning in the near future to buy some Phyllomedusa Tomopterna (Super Tiger-Legged Monkey Frogs) from him.

    Here's his site: Rainforest Junky's - Home

    And here's a link to his frog forum page if you're interested in his merchandise: michael novy

    If he's not what you want or you'd like to shop around you can always check out the site's sponsors, josh's frogs and alpha pro breeders. And you can always look around for breeders in your area or ask people on this site or others that are from your area where a good frog breeder may be. You never know what you'll find if you dig deep enough.

    Oh yeah, from the correspondence I've had with Mike he seemed like a really nice guy, laid back and cool, and he has all the info you need. I think he prefers if you call him though so if you wanna get in touch I would send him and email and then call, it's always easier to discuss business over the phone anyway. XD I can't WAIT to buy my P. Tomopterna from him, beautiful frogs. ><
