    Green tree frogs typically wholesale for $1 or less as WC, the price of breeding and raising them is so much more that a breeder would not be able to compete financially. Same thing with firebelly toads and a few other cheap species, if it retails for under $10 chances are it will never be CB, or only rarely by a hobbyist who does it for fun and doesn't mind losing money.
