So Much For Limiting My Diversity

[EverEvolvingExotics]

I ended up not being able to go home alone from this weekends Tucson Reptile Show. I brought home a custom ZooMed enclosure, 2 Dendrobates Auratus (Green & Bronze Dart Frogs), and a culture of fruit flies from Wendi Heffner aka Frogs with Altitude. I've met with her last year, she was very friendly and knowledgeable. I ended up selling a couple of my Crested Geckos while walking around the show to a friend and the cash was just too much to have in my wallet so I had to spend it of course, haha. I've looked into Dart Frogs in the past and was always fascinated by them. I've never kept much as far as frogs go so this will a little bit of a learning curve. I ended up getting a hardy species, I feel more than confident that they will get great care. The only thing I may end up doing is putting some hydro balls at the bottom of the enclosure. I'll need to do a bit of research before changing anything. Wendi has had great success with her enclosures set up like this. Enough rambling, here are the pictures I managed to take. It's great to have a little display setup next to my desktop. I might just end up starring at them more than the computer screen.

No doubt, definitely a worthwhile purchase! I don't know anything about dart frogs so I can't give you any advice, but they're awesome anyway. XD

Thanks! I've added a few more things in their enclosure to provide some more hide spots. Their first feeding just happened and I have to say it's a hilarious experience to witness.

Wow that's an awesome frog!
The feeding remark brought to mind the hilarious experience with Oliver's feeding...

Good buy, Ive always admired those frogs.
Can they eat pin heads?

 

[EverEvolvingExotics]

Thanks everyone! Katie, when they are adults they can eat pinheads but I hate crickets with an eternal passion.

I got some more pictures of the little ones, enjoy.

and an edited one...

I admire them... Wish I had frogs like that...

 

[EverEvolvingExotics]

They don't really to seem like a difficult species to take care of as long as you have the enclosure setup well. I was fortunate to have the breeder make the enclosure so I didn't have to worry much about it failing.

I love the color in poison dart frogs- especially these ones.

Thank you! They come in so many different colors and patterns. I'm starting to think about getting some Imitators a species of thumbnail PDFs.
