Re: Buyer Beware of Mike's Phat Frogs
This may not be the most helpful suggestion, and I certainly understand your frustration. Dealing with shipping animals always makes me a tad nervous and amphibians can be so delicate in responding to their environments. I always try to garner every last detail about how they're being kept where I'm buying from in order to recreate those exact conditions during the quarantine period.
Just throwing that out as a little aside in the topic.

It's extremely important that prospective purchasers educate themselves about diseases like this. And it is the responsibility of breeders and sellers to be accountable when a problem is discovered. Covering such things up only hurts the frogs, the people who love them, and the amphibian industry as a whole.

Oh man, Lisa, I haven't been in much to catch up. That is horrible! I will keep the rest of your frogs in my thoughts and cross my fingers that it didn't spread at all. No good

Re: Buyer Beware of Mike's Phat Frogs
Very well said. You are so right I just wish the rest of the breeders out there would take more precaution and put a little more love in to it. If all the breeders and sellers out there would put even half the love in, we wouldn't be in this pickle. I must say I've learned so much from you Lisa through all your posts and all the frog forum froggers as well. My frogs live happier, healthier lives now because of all of this. I'm always looking for ways to better my frogs well being and there housing and caring for them too.It's extremely important that prospective purchasers educate themselves about diseases like this.
