Our Almirante trio arrived, looking quite healthy. They were even heard calling a couple of times. They seem to have settled in to their new home and are eating well.
I am very sad to tell you that the green Trivitattus we had coming, did not make it. The vendor I purchased from chose to ship them by Express Mail. I have had problems in the past when frogs were shipped by mail. This time, rather than arriving overnight, they arrived three days later. The temps were very low that week, so they were dead upon arrival. Had they been shipped by FedEx or UPS, I don't believe there would have been a problem.
On a happier note, we did receive two fat, healthy pairs of Azureus. We have high hopes for them producing soon.
We also received three Red Galacts. One is an adult male. One is a sub-adult female (we think). The third is a froglet, too young to sex. They all look quite healthy and are also eating well. Again, we will keep our fingers crossed and hope for some eggs in the not too distant future.
Finally, I have decided to move our Leucomelas adults to a larger vivarium. They are very difficult to sex. However, I have a feeling that all three are males. So, we will be trying to find a proven pair to add to the group.
That's it for now.
