Gonna hopefully getting some mints in the next month . Sold off my old highland bronze auratus trio so I can buy some ball Python breeders. 1 out of every 30 babies or so would be completely bronze. I just have 3.2 tinc azureus. I’m not too serious in darts but they are nice side projects I have from my bp’s. I planning to keep adding to my dart collection slowly as time goes on tho. On must have wishlist is some sort of thumbnail dart, leucs, tinc Vanessa, mints, and Oophaga pumilio (prob end up getting salt creeks or blue jeans from my guy)

some mints in the next month

I bet PacMans would like mints

Complete bronze wow- I’ve not seen one, I’ll google those.

One of my favs is Blue-Footed Leucs! There are so many gorgeous PDFs, easily over 30 localities I’d want based on looks alone.

Those Blue Jeans are STUNNING!

I have a pied BP, they are so cheap now!!

After Pied my all time fav is clown. The funny thing is clown has been around at least as long as pied maybe longer. But NO ONE was working with them. Now in the past 5 yrs or so everyone is working with them

Yeah there are so many just amazing localities! I can’t wait till the spring to get my Ranitomeya. The tank will be ready by then!

also at @xXTristinaXx I have also been wanting to get some Vanessa and sone Oophaga pumila blue jeans. The Vanessa’s are just stunning black and white!!

The Vanessa’s are gorgeous, I will fs have everything on my list in the next couple years. People have been having a tough time breeding the blue jeans but it looks like we’re finally figuring it out.

I have like 2 tanks rn with one getting a tiny species like pumilio or some sort of thumbnail frogs. Mints are amazing too, especially just because of their huge size. Surprisingly, the melanistics aren’t extremely rare. They seem to be relatively common in auratus (still very rare ofc). I think Josh’s frogs sell them time to time

Mints are large for sure. There’s so many to choose from ugh

The funny thing I always end up spending more on making a kick ass enclosure than the frogs themselves. And let’s just say I spent some pretty dough when I got that auratus females who makes melanistics along with her two boyfriends

Once I found the Dendroboard I expected all these pics of gorgeous frogs, noooo tons and tons of setups, builds etc- check out my mistking , not my Blue Jeans

Trust Me— helpful, but frogs!!!!

There's enough pictures of frogs if you look for them!

There are! But was just surprised to see how much build posts there were, and some saying building tanks was more fun than keeping the frogs!

 

[catboyeuthanasia]

Y'all are making me want to get back into frogs again, especially when I found out that a local person is breeding mantellas...

Haha
Big PDF topic- which spray system is the best

i actually agree, it feels amazing to release your frogs into an enclosure you worked on so hard on (and spent a pretty penny) and with the long anticipation of letting the tank settle for at least a couple weeks, maybe a couple months.

Didn't know spray system was a big topic, the only one I see is Mistking, interesting, Yeah I've seen some owners let the tank cycle for like 5 months. One guy had a timelapse, and watching the fungus come and go in seconds was cool. I know someone who only uses 2 or 3 species of plants and that it for his builds! They are all beautiful. Esp those super large setups.

I do that, well, not always 5 months but usually 3-4.

Do it! If it you have to, just get some thumbnails cuz they stay nice and small. It’s nice cuz even the smallest darts can be so bold.

also got the confirmation on my P. terribilis mints! And I’m getting em half off from my dealer. Although they are only tads I’ll be getting them

I was mainly joking when I said that but there are DEFINITELY discussion in different systems every now and again, I am for sure getting some P terribilis mints in as soon on as they’re big enough, they’re tadpoles rn. And I’m getting them half off from my “dealer”

 

[viper69]

P terribilis mints

Awesome! Only reason I haven't pulled the trigger is quite a few owners at shows told me owning them, you end up spending more time raising insects, than enjoying the frogs. When I heard that quite a bit, I wasn't so sure I wanted to end up doing that.....I was all set to buy that day too, and somehow I hadn't come across that information before in my research!

I've owned White's Tree Frogs (awesome), Red Eye Tree Frogs (awesome), and the one that I will likely get is the Super-Tiger Legged Monkey Tree Frog at some point.

I've only kept tincs and leucs, because my partner likes the black and yellow ones, but I've always loved those blue jeans even since I saw one in a book as a kid! I've got ~80 gallons of shelf space to fill and it's taking all my willpower not to go on a shopping spree

Imagine an amazing bioactive vivarium in that size

I was just looking at blue jeans- the time I saw one, was like WOW. So bright red and the blue is amazing, hard to believe animals come in such vibrant colors. You need to get some!
