I saw in the for sale section of this Forum that LLLReptile had Baby Luetino Red Eyes and my girlfriend and I have been wanting to diversify our frogs without needing a whole new set-up (after quarantine). I looked into LLLReptile after seeing what happened with this
http://www.frogforum.net/testimonial...ase-avoid.html
LLLReptile has a live arrival guarantee on amphibians and I didn't find and "red flags" in my search. So I ordered 2 baby luetino Red Eyes on Wednesday night to be Shipped Thursday and arrive Friday when I'm not scheduled to work. They got here at 10:10 this morning and the FedEX driver even came in to check out my other frogs.
This one we are naming Yin
This one is Yang. If one of them turns out to be female then her name will change to Kaede (Kie-day) yes I watch Anime. I taped a penny next to him/her for size comparison. They are tiny!
My other frogs were at least the size of adult Males when we got them.
Here's my one question, what do I feed these tiny guys? My food supply is limited to Petco, they have small crickets, Meal worms, and Fruitfly cultures. I wasn't expecting Babies this small otherwise I would have ordered pin head crickets. Also, If I go Fruit flies, how do I dust them and contain them to the 10 Gallon vertical conversion I'm housing the Frogs in?
These guys are Awesome!!!!
Awww they are so tiny and cute. I hope your QT is uneventful and they make great additions.
Simply gorgeous little froggies! LLL are great aren't they? I have ordered quite a few frogs from them and never had a problem.
I'm no red eye expert, but I believe fruit flies may be a bit small for them. Pin heads would probably be a better choice.
Good luck with your new charges!!

I just purchased 2 myself today from them. Only thanks to you. I been looking for these guys for awhile.... I wanted to get a pair but they are babies only =(
OH well maybe ill get lucky with one female one male when they arrive and awaiting breeding age for them...im so excited!
For penny sized red eyes...fruit flies is too small..you could look into pinheads... and smalls soon after
ALSO PLEASE DONT BUY CRICKETS FROM PETCO!! THey profitability rate is 500% (I dated a petco manager got to know alot of the ins and outs of that company)
Please purchase all your herps food online... You will get a far better deal! GOOD LUCK!!!

Whats a good place to order crickets online?
I get mine at PetCity.
LLL REPTILES HAS A GOOD DEAL 200 for 10.99
i get mine at pet kingdom for 125 for 9.99 (in store only)
WHich store? Pet kingdom is only in san diego and is not a chain.
LLL reptiles that was the price ONLINE ...so not sure if thats a store price
All I can think of is "squee!" when I see how tiny they are! Hope they settle in well. Can not wait to see them grow!
