    Default Re: Where did you get your pacman? (please respond if you have a pacman)

    I have owned a total of 8 Horned Frogs among other things. The first one I ever purchased was from a Pet Expo. It was about tennis ball size and was only fifteen dollars, turned out to become a very large female. I was misinformed by the guy at the shop, who told me to make the consistency of the eco earth a very muddy consistency, that need to be changed weekly. Of course poop was hard to find in a mud puddle and after a week it became very smelly, I soon switched to gravel with moss over it (you dont have to say it) I later purchased one more from the same store on a whim a couple months later, which grew into a nice sized male.
    I ordered my first albino shortly thereafter from LLLReptile along with a tarantula and i think without shipping it was about $25, maybe. It was nickel sized, healthy and grew into a nice sized male.

    That was over ten years ago and I would still have them today if they werent killed when I left them in someone elses care while away from home for a week. I had them on bare bottom enclosures and told the guy to change the water if they pooped or every other day. Turned out he had some medication/mental health problems and allowed the enclosures to go completely dry and my frogs became dessicated.

    A few years later I purchased a $15 pacman from Petco. The frog ate a total of 15 times in a one and a half year period.

    More recently I bought a Fantasy, an albino and two greens from Reptile City. Not recommended. hey shipped it USPS on a Friday for Monday delivery...there was a DOA, he replaced it and I will never order from that terrible drop shipper again. I spent about $105 on five frogs and got free shipping (the shipping was free cause it was sent USPS.) Do NOT order ANYTHING from this company, ever.
    I more recently ordered an African Bullfrog, a brown pac, and an Ornate from Underground reptiles and despite a mishap resulting in a DOA, Im pleased with my order. The prices were great, the brown was $14, and the Ornates were $22.50, the african bullfrog was $22, fedex overnight shipping, which is the only way reptiles and amphibians should be shipped was about $53 which is pretty standard.

    I highly recommend LLLReptile and Underground Reptiles, as well as Eric Ivans of South Central Herpetological. BigApple herp is alright too, but you might get the wrong species of frog....
    Shipping is expensive so its not really worth it unless you are buying around five or so frogs. Locally I could pay anywhere from $30 to $40 for a Green Pacman, $40 to $50 for an albino and an African Bullfrog can cost around $50, and I have never seen an Ornate in a MN petshop EVER, so the prices I pay for several frogs plus shipping still comes out a WAY better deal where I live.
