Ive been looking everywhere and was wondering if you guys will special order a tiger salamander for me. Ive called around and every place said that you might be able to help me out. If you are not able to order them do you know of the closest place I could go to to purchase one of these. My buddy caught his by the lake this summer and these guys are amazing, super friendly and they also recognize their owner, super smart animals. Could you please let me know where to purchase one and if you guys can get one for me!
Hi Tyler, another option for a reptile would be a crested gecko. They are type of lizard that doesn’t need alot of the heating and lighting requirements that most lizards need. Stop in and we can answer any other questions you may have.
Hi Aaron, we do not typically carry poison dart frogs. Their feeding and care requirements make them one of the more difficult species to properly care for. We could see if we could get some in for you but you would have to pay for them ahead of time and pick them up the day they came in. We have carried red eyed tree frogs in the past but it is not a species that is readily available to us.
Hi Shannon, we are not able to sell tadpoles anymore, because of many of them were released and they are not species found in this area. The only way in WI you can get them is to go and catch them yourself, (those would be the best ones for the environment if you are going to release them anyways). If you have any other questions let us know.
My grandson just caught some froglets that hatched and were jumping by the thousands at Menards yesterday…. we have been trying to catch (made a homeade knat/fly catcher) small knats and flys but have not caught enough to feed the 9 froglets. I’ve been reading up on what else we can feed them and found bloodworms and baby crickets to be the most popular. Do you concure with this? If so, do you have these available for purchase at the store?? If not, what do you suggest…. our last resort would be to let them go at the wetland pond behind South Middle School…. Please advise!
Hi Julie, I saw those frogs out there the other day too, they are tiny! Any soft bodied insect will work but they have to be pretty small. We do carry small/med sized crickets in boxes that might work for you. Otherwise, we can order in smaller crickets but you would have to order 500 at a time. If you have any further questions just let us know. Have fun with your little frogs!
Hi, I was wondering what type of Frogs you guys currently have, and also how often do you get in Pac Man frogs? I want to purchase one as a gift for someone and would need the Pac Man frog by this Friday at the latest. Also, how much does a Pacman frog cost and what supplies would I need for him? So basically, all in all what would it cost to buy one? Thank you
Hi Kelsey, I am sorry we do not have any pacman frogs right now. We see them usually once or twice a year, and would be unable to get on for you in time.

I am sorry we can not carry salamanders. There are state laws about owning and selling them which make it difficult for us to sell them.

do you guys carry newts?
By tropi26, March 12, 2011 @ 12:52 pm
We just got a shipment of fire belly newts in this week. Come in and check out our selection.

Do you have any tree frogs or other exotics?
By tropi26, November 10, 2011 @ 5:52 pm

Do you have any tadpoles? Or would you be able to order any (esp ones that could be released)?

Do you have a selection of crested geckos? It seems that all I can find are the plain brown. What is your price for a crested gecko?
