Welcome! Where did you get that mossy frog I have never seen one for sale

Great pictures.

@Nick, Russia is notorious for it's research on Theloderma,
most in Europe originate from their breeding stock
It's because of their connection with Vietnam etc.

Very nice pictures! Thanks alot for sharing and welcome to the forum!

Are all species of Theloderma of the same size? Think I've read somewhere that the asperums are smaller, is that true?
Can you feed them anything besides fruitflies? Roachnymphs and small crickets?

I think T.corticale is one of biggest species and can reach 8-9cm (3-3,5 inches). Asperum are smaller, they reach approx.3cm (1 inch) and can be feed by anything From fruitflies to big insects. Here are adult frogs:You can also saw articles of Eugeny Ryboltowsky (is it translation correct?) here: Articles - breeding of rare Vietnamese amphibians

Exactly Today in RF keeps at least 9 Theloderma species (T. corticale, T. gordoni, T. leporosa, T. asperum,T. stellatum,T. bicolor, T. licin, T. horridum, T. ryabovi) and breeds 7 of them (T. licin and T. ryabovi still have no pairs ). Here is many great specialists like N. Orlov, S. Ryabov, E. Rybaltovsky, M. Bagaturov, R. Berdyev etc.. Really, I was surprised that you don't have them in sale because these 2 species are 'ordinary' here and they costs approx. 500-800 rubles ($17-27) Few other species are not so popular but still available. Are they absolutely not available in USA? Very sad

I have two vietnamese mossy frogs and have seen the other mossy frogs posted here. I purchased the frogs in N.C.

I fell in love with the Mossy Frog @ Repticon in Raleigh NC this year. They had a few for sale but since I'm new to keeping Cope's and Fowler's I'm stickin' with the locals. But they are awesome creatures!
