After a month of pining for these rather costly creatures I've taken the plunge and reserved 2 which I will be picking up over the bank holiday weekend!

Does anybody have any experience with Megophrys Nasuta/Montana?

I really need info on temperature as the info available varies from cool - very warm!!!

Thanks

I've seen they need room temp (with heat in winter) and a damp-savanna/semi aquatic set-up, but like you say information on these is very variable.

I would love to get a few of these myself. Where'd did you find some? I've been looking about for a while. Looking forward to your photos when you get them

Ah a man after my own heart...once you've caught the bug so to speak, there's no limit to how far you'll travel!

Coast to Coast in Darlington got a new shipment in last week......

Luckily he's not seen this thread yet so he's not been tempted.

I've been keeping him away from the computer all weekend
