    Default Re: Where Do YOU Buy Dart Frogs?

    For me, I prefer to visit a reputable fellow hobyist where I can see the frogs I am intending to buy first, even if that does involve me travelling 100 miles to get there. Before Making the actual purchase I take a good look over not only the frogs I am buying, but any other frogs kept by them and talk to them about their frogs getting as much info as possible about what the frogs and froglets have been fed and any supliments given and how often. That way I can physically see the conditions they and the other frogs are kept in and can make my own informed descision on the quality or lack thereof of what I am getting. I don't like buying over the internet where they are shipped to me, I hate to think of what they go through whist being shipped to me. I also don't buy from pet shops as they are generally housed in terrible (in my opinion) conditions by people who have no idea how to care for them or don't care.

    But this is just me.

    Just realised I must be the customer from hell

    Face to face is very important to us. Seeing the frogs in person too. That said, I have purchased frogs sight unseen before.

    I obtain my Mantella Betsileo from Understory Enterprises, a Canadian PDF breeder that has been around for 13 years and very involved in conservation and frog welfare. If you youtube their name you will come across numerous videos of people who have ordered beautiful and healthy PDFs from them. I have a preference to see the creature before purchasing but I live in a region that only has a couple small towns and one local petshop that stocks a very limited array of critters.

    Just went to the NOVA expo this weekend and it sucked. Only 1 vendor with frogs. I was hoping for a larger selection. Plus I wanted to get some plants and wood for my tank too. back to going online.

    For Canadians there is no better company to obtain your frogs from then UE (Understory Enterprises). They have very healthy specimens, decent prices, fast and safe delivery, very knowledgeable and doing a lot on the side line to help amphibians rather then be just sellers.
