Phyllobates Terribilis Orange babies

[Mentat]

Hi Will, they are coming along great ! Interesting how the babies fade the dark coloring that hides them for the brighter adult colors. Imagine this darker color is needed in the wild until froglet has accumulated enough toxin on it's body for it's defense mechanism.

So number 5 came out of the water Saturday and is in his temporary home. No pictures of this one however. when I set the cup down I did not even get my hand off the cup and he was off to hide. Hopefully I will get pictures of the energetic little guy soon. The first 2 that came out are about 80% orange so they are starting to look really cool. Hopefully have some new pictures to share here soon, I have been trying to keep the stress down on them and keep my photo sessions to a minimum since they have made it clear that they are not a fan of the flash.
