D. Leucomelas 40b Vert - Build Journal

I never get to build as many as I would like, but the cold weather and lack of frog purchasing has afforded me the opportunity to pre build some tanks for frog purchases later this year .

wow 11.. You are one lucky guy Paul ... Is it ok that I call you Paul. We hardly know each other, but us Pauls have got to stick together

I live in IL but until recently was planning to try and make it to the next Long Island show, but have had to scrap that plan for now. Maybe in the fall.

Though I am currently waiting on a warm up in the weather so I can get some frogs I have been wanting for a while now. Can't wait to get them and share pics with everyone

[Vivariums In The Mist]

Of course, Paul's are where it's at! Lol

Thats a shame, Lynn had mentioned you might be coming to the LI show. Hopefully the fall show.

what kind of frogs are you looking for?

Yeah I was really excited to come and see everyone, but my wife and I are expecting a baby in June and spending money on a 19hr road trip just got cut from the list of things I was going to be able to do unfortunately.

Ohh I have quite a list of frogs that I want but the more immediate ones are...

1. A group of 4 Leucs - Hoping to some how get some of Lynn's offspring

2. 2 - 3 Mint Terri's - Again would love to buy them from lynn (the last pic I posted is the Mint tank)

3. Secret Pair - I have ordered them and am just waiting for a few days of warmer weather so they can be shipped.

I have enough room on the rack for about 4-6 more species after the 3 listed above. It will be hard to narrow the list down.

Congrats on the baby! Future frogger on the way

i have a couple of Leucs from Lynn, very healthy. Can't go wrong with her.
If for any reason you can't get from her, let me know.

Looking forward to seeing what you get!!

I will absolutely keep you in mind! What frogs do you keep and breed?

[Vivariums In The Mist]

I personally keep Orange Terribilis, Vulture Points and Leucs right now. I don't normally breed, but I work with several local breeders and am currently selling Leucs in my showroom. I have access to many breeds though!
my main business though is selling planted vivs and supplies.

We should chat some at some point not on the forum. I think we have at least similar businesses would love to pick your brain some

I work full time in the evening on server and other such nerdy things, but during the day I get to work on what I love which is tanks and working with my frogs.

On a side note this winter has been especially brutal for me. The temps got so low one night my frog room fell below 64F and was falling fast. The space heater couldn't keep up fast enough. I had to add a 2nd heater and some heat cables to the rack to keep the temp up and allow the space heaters to not run 24/7. Sadly the overnight dip cost me my 5 Mantella Ebenaui. I also (prior to winter) sold off my 5 Red Eye tree frogs. I loved those guys and gals, but was so tired of dealing with crickets :/

[Vivariums In The Mist]

Wow, ow, that's rough! Hope it warms up for you guys.

Thanks Paul. It was awful to discover them. They were my first Non Tree frogs. So very sad. But they were my only casualties and for that I am thankful.
