Where to find Budgett's frogs from new york?

[heavenlyblue9]

Hello lovelies,

So, I'm living in Finland and I'm going for a trip to new york next month the first time and I've been dreaming of budgett's frogs for a few years now - but I've never had the chance to actually get one because here in Finland no one even knows what the H*** Budgett's is and in Europe it's very rare to have one as a pet.

But! Gladly I'm going to America where dreams come true... The only problem is where to find a pet shop which sells budgett's?
At this point I would be needing your help.

If you live in New york or have been there once or just somehow know - Please tell me where could I purchaise these amazing creatures

Thank you so much in advance!

-Sirpa

What do you intend to do, pack it up and fly it home in your luggage?

https://www.reptmart.com/c-115-frogs.aspx they have Budget's frog. They are out of stock right now and I don't know if they can ship to you. I've never seen one in a pet store around me but I did see them in expos.

I don't know if you can actually stop in and purchase a frog but Big Apple Herps carry them.

A pet store right near me had one just recently
They might even still have one
it was like about 3" long, fat and was $50 i think

Anyway, its Arcadia Pets in Staten Island
I'm going around there today anyway so I can check if they still have one for you

I just got back and they still have it
Its being sold for $60 though not 50

Thank you again - your help means the world to me!

Well it wasn't my intention to just grab the frog from the tank and slam the door shut and leave the pet shop

It's not like I haven't studied how to care for budgett's and just want one because they're cute and cuddly. I'm not that kind of person.

But yeah anyways - thank you so much for your help!

No, but seriously I'm not sure yet. I have to find something compact to inhabit the frog/s where there's little bit water and some dry soil what I can take to the plane with me. I'm working on it
