Dart Frog Blog
We have expanded. 04/16/2011
Earlier this week, we bought out a number of breeding pairs from a Kentucky dart frog breeder, who is leaving the business. The adult pairs included several Leucomelas pairs, a couple of green and black Costa Rican Auratus pairs, two pairs each of Standard Imitators and Yuri Imitators. In addition, we purchased two more pairs of G & B Costa Rican Auratus from another source. Hopefully in the coming months, we will have many of each available for sale. I know some of you are following the progress of the Red Trivitattus that recently hatched. We currently have twenty three healthy, growing tads. We lost a few eggs toward the end and one tad so far. However, I'm feeling pretty confident about their survival. Once big enough, at about two to three months old, we will be releasing them for sale. These will be the first Red Trivs I have personlly ever seen available, that are captive bred. It happens, but is very rare for them to produce in captivity. We had ten Mint Terribilis available and sold out the first week they became available. I will be releasing eight more for sale next week. So, if you are interseted, please call, text or e-mail to reserve. They can be picked up in Greensboro or at the Raleigh Reptile show April 30/May1. We also have plenty of Azureus juvies and Turquoise & Black/Bronze Auratus juvies available. The Auratus are very large, fat, healthy six month old frogs. Please stop by our table at the Raleigh show in two weeks. We will have all of the above frogs available, along with some planted vivs, Rep-Cal calcium powder, FF cultures and culturing kits, sheet moss and we will be debuting our new "Got Frogs?" t-shirts. Also, if anyone has any tads, froglets, juvies, adults or pairs of any frogs we currently are not working with and would like to sell them, please contact us. We always like to meet fellow dart enthusiasts, so say hey when you visit the show. That's it for now, Jeff Add Comment We've got some new arrivals. 09/16/2010
We've got some new arrivals at Carolina Dart Frogs. Over the last two weeks, we have added several new species. Our first new arrival was a pair of beautiful O. Pumilio Solartes. One is red and the other a kind of salmon color. They are a male and female pair and the male is calling occasionally, but no eggs so far. Next was a pair of green Trivitattus. They are huge, bright green and kind of shy. I have heard some calling from the male. I have to admit, they are one of my favorites. Yesterday, we got in a new male Azureus. He is a replacement for one we lost to escaping recently. He is perhaps the largest male I have ever seen. He is still kind of timid and avoids the female, who follows him. Next week we have a pair of Costa Rican green and black Auratus arriving, as well as a pair of Tinctorius Yellowbacks. This will be our first time with the Yellowbacks and we look forward to breeding them. Stay tuned for more new arrivals over the coming weeks. | AuthorJeff Craig ArchivesMay 2012 CategoriesAll |
