Answers:

I think you might be talking about Pacman Frogs or Horned frogs. These are frogs that sart out small when they are young and grow up to be very large. The normal Pacmans are green to dark green in color, but for about $5.00 extra you can buy an albino Pacman. These are bright yellow to bright green in color.

Out of all the frogs you can keep as pets, I believe that these are the easiest to take care of. They are hungry all the time and will bite your finger I you are careless, but they are fun to keep. Aslo, know that these are stationary frogs, they barley move.

if you plan on gettin one I suggest you do lots of research before hand so you can get familiar with temp. and humidity reqirements, tank size, tank accesories, etc. etc.

Here are some sites and message boards that I use and find really helpful:

Hope this helps! If you do get one, I wish you the best of luck. They are the coolest frogs to keep.

Um, I've always heard that the colorful ones are poisonous, some of which are so toxic that simply touching them can kill you.
