    Thanks Paul! I will post pics right away . I was planning to bowl feed for monitoring food intake. Much more peace of mind knowing exactly what they've eaten.

    I was worried the soak would add stress also, figured it was better just to make sure they have a water dish ready instead.

    I'm very excited to get these babies tomorrow!

    Getting new frogs is always exciting! Who did you end up ordering them from?

    I always love getting new frogs. Perfect excuse to hold them for a few seconds before you put them in their new home


    Sorry to spell all the stuff I do out. I know you know what to do, I just try to be over the top with info for others that may be reading and have the same question you did

    No, that's perfect. I may ask a mod to change the title to something more "searchable," didn't think about it when I first started the thread.

    Ordered them from lllreptile. They seem to be knowledgeable about what they're selling and answered all my questions with patience and fairly quickly over the last few weeks. So I'm confident things will go well (at least as far as what they have control over.)

    I haven't told my kids they're coming yet and don't think I will until they've had time to adjust. The kids don't stay up late and the quarantine tank is in a room they do not use, so they wont have their faces pressed to the glass stressing the new babies out. They're very respectful of my frogs, but who can resist peeking at new babies?

    LoL Awesome!

    I have bought 2 Red Eyes from them and 5 Mantella Betsileo. All my frogs arrived alive, healthy, and safely

    Argh we are having some wicked thunderstorms this morning and the road to my office has flooded pretty good. Hopefully fedex will be able to make their way through!

    Hope your new babies arrive safely Amy! Hope power outages don't ruin your day like mine. Fried EVERYTHING! Even the stuff on power strips. Need new lightbulbs, new mister, new heat pad.

    Oh no Eli!! That is horrible! Our power did go out last night, I didn't even realize it until the power came back on and the pumps restarted. All the clocks around the house were flashing this morning. Are your power strips surge protected? All my frog equip is on a surge protected strip. I paid about $30 each but it was worth it.

    I've seen a couple SUV's brave the flooded street, the water is up to their doors, so I hope fedex is willing to brave it. UPS just came and went and didn't seem to have an issue. Hopefully it goes down before I'm supposed to leave here today, my little car will not make it through there.

    ETA: They changed the estimated delivery time from today at 10:30am to N/A frustrating
