Hey Mike,
I don't but saw some really nice ones at a local shop a few weeks back. Pretty cool looking frogs.

Im a former keeper who cant make up mind if he wants to go for them again or try something else since theres so much to choose from but only space for 1 more cage.

Were they easy for you to keep?

For me they were. I had made my own cage for mine. It was a screen cage with wood frame and I fitted it around the largest cat litter pan I could find which I had planted. It made cleaning a breeze.

Ok sounds good. I have a 7ft tall 4 foot wide and 3 foot deep screen cage with a vision tub as the base.

wow your frogs sure are going to be happy with that! as for keeping, i think waxies are the easiest to keep as long as you think of them not as of frogs.

Lol the shipment is taking longer to get out of paraguay. I'm waiting for them to come in still.

They are great frogs that make very rewarding vivaria subjects. If kept right, WC individuals can become very hardy in captivity.

Most wild caught Phyllomedusa sauvagii I have seen so far have been in pretty bad condition (only once I saw a healthy looking shipment). And often they will die after a couple of weeks/month. => I highly recommend getting captive bred ones if possible. e.g. Sandfire Dragon Ranch are breeding them.

I'm going to hopefully breed them by fall

Did you got them and did you try to breed them?

kind regards,
Martin
