    Default Dartfrog morph questions

    Im not getting any darts any time soon but i di enjoy looking at them as they look like really interesting snimals. I was wondering about what 'morphs' are. I can tell theyre the same species with dufferent patterns and colours. How did they get like that and are there care specifications the same as another morph in that species,

    heres some different leuc morphs

    Default Dartfrog morph questions

    The morphs sometimes just come from different imports of frogs from different places. They usually have the same care requirements but some can be bigger or smaller and thus, no morph should be mixed. Josh's Frogs has many dart morphs. A normal leucomelas i belive has both spots and stripes. The "fine spot" morph is smaller and has mostly spots. The "british guyana" morph has pretty much only stripes and is larger than a regular leuc. There are other examples but thats the only one i can think of. Its mostly through breeding out recessive traits in order to get the desired size, color, and pattern.
