Rain chambers and breeding

[DVirginiana]

... Am I just missing what was offensive here?
I have no intentions of breeding pacs either naturally or with hormones, but if the info's already been published in another source, then what is the issue with bringing it up?

[mikesfrogs]

I dont know what was offensive either. I figured those that like to read out of a book would like to know they have been published. I own two of philippes books on pacmans and a kindle version on pyxies. The books contain a great deal of info and are low cost.

Nice book list...thanks Loc! That's what I need. Whether I decide to breed just to try it or not that's some great Information that saves me a lot of time and questions. Thanks again!

I am simply providing this information to those who would find in informative and helpful. The information is coming from books in my personal library, and my experience in this very area. I am posting this in an effort to further educate those who may find it helpful.

Reply to post # 7,
While there may be a growing interest in C. cornuta as captives, they are out-numbered by the avialability of even the most newly avialable species. I think it would better serve the keeping
community to further develop a sharper dicipine of skills concerning the more commonly kept species. As such, the more experience one has with any single species, the better the understanding of
working with any/all. Perhaps you should relate some of your experiences concerning your captives.
PDV & BM, ....It is probable that these two men are the only reason we have these frogs to enjoy. By all means, reading their helpfull publications should be required by all keepers. ( I strongly suggest)
I fully intend to provide information for all to use. Since you have a very large collection of more commonly kept species, please help members become more comfortable and understanding with
husbandry concepts by starting your own informational thread, relating your own experiences.

You know, most of the people you've told to 'help members become more comfortable' with their care or something to that effect are actually very active and informative members...
The reason no one really writes purely informational posts like you are talking about are treated like any other thread; after a week or two, no one is likely to find them without specifically searching for them.

All the basic care info for cranwelli and ornata is pretty easy to find, both on this forum and on the internet in general.
Yes, there are fewer cornuta keepers, but even on this forum there would be a lot of interest in hearing what someone who knows a lot about them has to say. There seem to be several active threads about cornuta at any given time.

Obviously you agree with Mikes' Frogs in the satiation of information avialability concerning typically kept species.
Informational posts are very different than open threads which often drift off topic. Informational posts may need a place to be put upon the forum, may need to be modified, edited, updated, etc., yet
they may provide a more comprehensible understanding, than personal communications on an evolving thread which may become confusing due to " drifting".
Again, I will eventually post my experiences with C. cornuta, that will be a task<
