    It is very possible that customs or Dept. of Agriculture somewhere along the line inspected the package... Meaning they open it up completely, unpack, inspect, then repack the contents... I had this happen with an order of $500 worth of precious little banded imitator dart frog froglets... When I opened the package (which was clearly labeled with arrows) all of the little cups with frogs were sideways and the frogs were all pinned under the moss... Fortunately, they all survived...

    Im not sure how much i can say in this section without getting in trouble. Some sites require you to put this stuff in a vendor feedback or testimonials.


    Most of underground reptiles frogs are field collected. This being said, look at the thread in testimonials.

    those frogs came from the same source.

    I also bought my first 2 frogs from underground reptiles and 1 died within a week. I sent fecals from the one that lived, and Dr Frye's assistant told me that they had the most hookworms she had ever seen in a single fecal examination.

    No, they admitted it was a new employee that packed it badly
