Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Pink Lemonade Horned Frog?
Has anyone bought one of these so-called "pink lemonade" horned frogs from Underground Reptiles? They look really interesting, but I'm hesitant considering there are no other photos out there that I can find.
Did anyone else take a chance on these?

There are like 12 - 15 horned frog morphs. That one looks like lemon albino horned frog. Sometimes morphs have multiple names.

My hesitancy on that purchase would not be regarding the frog morph itself. That's all the rules here permit being said, so hopefully a little hint is sufficient and Google can help with the details.

I can’t rule it out, but the lemon albino is already listed on their website. The way the two morphs were photographed is totally different though so it’s hard to say.

Yes, that is one of the major reasons I’m more cautious than I would be otherwise. The only reason I’m even considering it is because this morph is terribly interesting if it actually does look anything like the picture.

I don't want to link to an ad on another platform, but a DDG search for 'pink lemonade horned frog' got me some hits ('pink lemonade pac man' didn't work as well) from another vendor (probably the person who actually bred the frogs) on that other classified site. They might have info on the exact genetics, though my above caution still holds in this situation too. Sigh.

I didn’t even think about trying “horned frog” as a search term! Unfortunately the photos didn’t look too promising either. I’m probably going to skip these guys. What a shame.

It might be interesting to figure out what the genetics are (and report back here, of course ). You might be able to make more informed guesses about what the range of appearance might be by comparing with other similar morphs.
Just a suggestion, though; hope you end up finding whatever it is you're looking for.

I sent a couple of messages to Unground to see if they had any other photos or anything, but needless to say they weren’t super helpful in that regard. I realize they have a lot of business and can’t answer every question, but considering it’s supposedly a unique morph with no other examples that I can find you can’t blame me for being curious.
I haven’t had a chance to ask the probable breeder yet, but I will report back when/if I do!

Minor Update: The Pink Lemonade Pacmans from the other site are NOT the same as the ones from Underground Reptiles. The non-Underground frogs seem to be sold via Frogs Direct and come from an in-house lemon x strawberry cross.
