Where on the internet can I buy an African Albino Clawed Frog?

I had my precious male die from dropsy. Vet and I could not save him. Guess it was his time to cross over with Heavenly Father. We worked for three months aspirating him, antibiotics but nothing helped. It is so sad to watch a pet die. My two females (Rose and Martha) are lonely. I had them for five years with no trouble. Can someone please tell me a website to go to so I can purchase a male? I got these at Walmart. Walmart stores did away with their fish line. I tried Petsmart and they only have the dwarf aquatic frogs. The albino's are aquatic. They live in the water at all times. I live in Springtown Texas (Parker County) and to far to drive to FW or Dallas.

Update:

Sorry I do not do Ebay. Thanx Celsius 4! .Consider the shape of the frog in question. Males will be relatively skinny and will have a smooth backside. Females will be plump and pear-shaped and will possess a longer cloaca, which is a bump on her backside through which eggs and waste are passed. The cloaca can usually be observed with the naked eye. The cloaca is between the back legs.If it were a cat or dog it would be the point where the tail is attached to the body-if this makes sense. Also at maturity, males are half the size of a female. Sexing when they are young is very diffiucult. Almost have to wait till they start the growth spirt.

    Lovely, a girl who likes frogs... just my type of girl. Anywho, you can buy them here but I can't tell if it's a male or female they're selling...

    You could try a Grow a Frog kit: www.growafrog.com. Perhaps they have older frogs on hand that are at an age where their sex can be determined.

    I've seen them in local pet store chains from time to time.

    Also, you can check with local nature centers. Around here our local nature center has some pet ACF's that were surrendered to them because people didn't realize how big they got. They keep them in their animal display areas.

    Good Luck

    I've heard sometimes they get mixed in with the african dwarf frogs in the pet stores. If you know what to look for (webbed fingers, etc) then you know what not to look for.
