My new Varadero

[flybyferns]

I was going to post something about my pending deal but I wasn't sure it was going to be a for sure thing. I had some problems on my end with PayPal.

Anyhow, I just received my frogs this morning and they are incredible. I am really happy with them and the deal I made. I bought four and they are offspring from UE. The frogs were pulled from three separate lines.

A family member ran off with my good camera so I'll have to post more pictures later. Here's what I have so far...

Thank you. They are really active. I figured they would be quite shy after the whole shipping process but the second I got them into their quarantine container they started jumping around all over the place. I can't wait till they get older and grow a little.

Hi Bryan,
Congratulations! What an exciting delivery.
Post more photos when you get a chance.

If you like the thumbnails ......you will really love the O pumilio. And they are NOT difficult to care for
The pumi froglets are a bit more fragile, but the parents make it easy.

Good for you.....as you , know young imis need QT ---for a while--to make sure they are eating their FF.
Give them plenty of sprintails. It's great to mix the lines. I have 2 breeding pair.....from 3 different sources ( all w/ lineage to UE)

I have been using 3 QT ( food safe) containers ( I make mini vivs) for grow-out . They work really great.

Warning....They are little Houdinis' . Escape artists.!!!!! The openings need ALARMS! They learn where things open and wait for their opportunity to escape! Check the doors , all openings, and around the rim of a regular aquarium before you open to feed! I only WISH I had someone to tell me this when I first got mine. I have had so many close calls. One actually escaped once. We had to rescue him from the support brackets of the rack. I nearly had a melt down. It was horrible , but had a happy ending. You have to develop a strict routine of knowing where they are BEFORE you open up

Enjoy !
