Finally had some success with my B. terrestris

Wow that was quick. Very well done to you, sir. What are you going to do with the froglets?

I was just thinking about your breeding efforts the other day when I saw dartsami selling captive bred stelzneri over on dendroboard, then reading his thread. Those guys owe you a lot of credit.

Well I didn't even try to raise out the whole batch, but of the ones I did raise out I plan to keep some and then give a few to EdK and maybe a few other people that I get along with and consider advanced hobbyists with a decent chance of breeding them once they mature. I am more comfortable when all the eggs aren't in one basket so to speak. I would like to see this morph become established in the hobby as it is a nice morph and I think there would be a demand for them.

lol, I in turn owe a lot to some early keepers and breeders of non dart frogs in Europe like Zimmermann and so on. I read their books as a kid and some of the general principles in those books started me out in the right direction on breeding a number of different things. I am tickled that dartsami had success breeding the melanophryniscus this year. I only hope enough people have success with breeding them to allow the species to remain readily available when the imports again dry up as they are bound to do sooner or later.

Well done Seth, They look perfect.
