    Pacman frogs are bred by only a few major producers using hormone treatment. Breeding by hobbyists is a fairly rare event so there just aren't many tads to show.

    There are a few more breeders over here in the UK breeding their pacmans without hormone treatment.
    This does involve a period of aestivation to condition the frogs for breeding which itself has its own risks but quite a few have had great successes.
    0.0.2 Ceratophrys cranwelli
    0.0.3 Dendrobates azureus
    0.0.4 Dendrobates tinctorius "Alanis" (tads)
    3.3.0 Epipedobates anthonyi (+tads!)
    0.0.1 Lepidobatrachus laevis
    0.0.4 Pyllobates terribilis
    0.0.3 Ranitomeya imitator "Chazuta"
    0.0.3 Ranitomeya vanzolini
    0.0.6 Xenopus laevis

    On the plus side, you can order the necessary chemicals for hormone treatment. None of them are controlled. On the other hand, I would not recommend that for the average hobbyist (That means you) without training and the equipment to get the dosages right.

    Chemical supply companies. The most successful combination is a form of synthetic leutenizing hormone and a dopamine antagonist in a DMSO carrier. But... to keep people from Trying This At Home I wont say the exact combination (doses, administration methods, which specific stuff you want, which supply company has the best stuff etc)

    Thanks for your replies everybody. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get on for 3 days. I really wish your average jo could breed them it would be great to breed them without chemicals.
