There are many problems with stores saying that they have a giant. That is why people are getting ripped off. It is also hard to get a full grown or bigger than 3 inch pyxie frog because the stores don't like to spend that much money or people like to keep their bigger ones. My first one was a giant which I got from ed clark but it wasn't a male and he said it was. I got my first male which was 6 months old and 4 inches long. It was from Jeff K and he was really honest. The frog was real healthy too. Personally I like to buy frogs from people offline because they really know what their talking about and they have had more experience than store owners did.
