My vote was for Benedicta because it is the only one out of all of them that if/when they are imported illegally will probably have the lest iffiness (as far as legality) that surounds them.

I said other, pumilio sound like the perfect frogs but I just don't have the money. Can someone clarify why they illegalized these frogs? Doesn't seem logical.

I voted for the histros. They rock.

**EDIT** Since I'm a little slow today, I removed my comment. Although, Brian and Alex were kind enough to quote my idiocy below. Sorry bobberly!

He said he voted for other and that the other would be pumilio...

Good choice I picked histros too, they are my favorite. Tho Benedicta are a very close second.

As far as pumilio they certainly are not illegal, but a lot of morphs, such as "blue jeans" are not readily available so I will accept it.

I just meant which I covet the most, didn't know there was an illegal clause. Those hists look pretty awesome though.
