Interested in getting a few of these, do any of y’all keep them? If so, do they get bigger than the typical pacman? Pictures are welcome. My last pacman was albino and ended up a male so was on the smaller side. I been thinking of getting a pair of these with the hopes of a female that will grow quiet large.

I had a male (but sadly passed), but I got him for a discount since he had slight nuerological issues. C. aurita in comparison to C. cranwelli in terms of male sizes, isn't much too different. Though I do admit that C. aurita is larger than the typical C. cranwelli in terms of my male. I don't know about females, since I never had one. So maybe someone can chime in on that.

I would like to pursue pac-man frog breeding in the future, but the market is wayyyy to saturated with pac-man frogs since one litter of them is about as much if not more than a tarantulas offspring count.

yeah my experience with them has been male also. I will probably pick up a few in hopes of a female. They are fun to keep, a pet rock that has a good feeding response. Maybe because the care is close to tarantulas haha.
