AVS Horned Frogs

Argentine and Chacoan horned frogs currently bred by the thousands annually are some of the most popular of the amphibians. Ease of care, hardiness and a caricatural appearance make them one of the best beginner...

Excellent Resource on Horned Frogs
| Comments |
Horned Frogs are growing in popularity and becoming more common to see in the pet trade, but there is still a lot to learn about them. This is a very comprehensive resource on these frogs, at a budget price. It is 56 pages covering Horned Frogs, with a few pages (4) also touching on Budgett's Frogs.
The sections include:
- Introduction
- General Information
- Selection and Quarantine
- Chacoan Horned Frogs
- Notes on Other Horned Frogs
- Budgett's Frogs
- Diseases & Disorders
- Conclusion
Almost every page contains a well taken and relevant photograph and it is basically everything you need to know in order to keep a Horned Forg in captivity.
The information is detailed and accurate, and the breeding section is especially useful to anyone thinking of trying to reproduce these in captivity, something that is not achieved that often so the more information you can get before trying, the better! There are quite a few editions of this book, the most recent revised edition seems to contain a bit more information.
It's also quite interesting to read about Budgett's frogs, a frog very few people keep or know anything about and if you like horned frogs you may fall in love with these too (they are both the cutest yet the ugliest frog in existence at the same time - you'll see what I mean when you see the photos!) after reading this book.

To be honest there's nothing really negative I can say about this book, if you're after information on Horned Frogs then you can't go wrong.
