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.

Ed knows a lot about frogs, he gave me the name of some good frog boards so maybe he will come here and post them.
I was given an injured rescue pacman by a Petco store and sadly, he did not make it, but the pacman frogs are pretty easy to care for and they are great looking frogs.

I would have to say the Pacman frog also. That was my first frog and it did great.

start here for some frog info.

I would suggest an african pyxie frog or an ornate horned frog, both are very hardy.

Hee hee yep I want cute on top of easy to care for. 
Thanks for the replies and link. I still have to do my research on these guys and how long they live ect... but I just think they would be good to care for and would make a great addition to my collection.

I still haven't purchased one yet but some to seem really great and the pacman is a big frog lol.
The colors are good on many of them, I just haven't gathered all the info on keeping them that I would like before buying.
It seems they are a bit messy but hey I always played in the dirt when I was a kid

Then those would be perfect for you. The messiest frogs I owned were bullfrogs. The pacman's were not bad if kept in moss rather than dirt. We had Redeye frogs before, really cool to watch, but a little more difficult for us to keep here in the desert.

Ground coco fiber is the substrate of choice for all burrowing frogs such as ceratophrys and pyxiecephalus.
