Wow, that's a whole zoo . Welcome to the forum. Do you have favorite species?

[Kurt]

My favorites are Agalychnis callidryas, Dendrobates azureus, & Dendropsophus leucophyllatus. But I do love most frogs, especially Bufonids, Hylids, & Dendrobatidids. My fantasy frogs are Bufo exsul and Agalychnis annae. Sadly, I seriously doubt I will ever have any.

Hi right back at you.

I love Agalychnis annae, although I think moreletii is my favorite. Unfortunately you are probably right, they will rarely be seen in the hobby anymore.
