    Yeah, I understand. That's unfortunate.
    2.0.3 Hyla versicolor "Eastern Gray Tree Frogs"
    2.2.0 Agalychnis callidryas "Red Eyed Tree Frogs"

    0.0.3 Dendrobates auratus "Turquoise and Bronze"
    0.0.1 Anaxyrus fowleri "Fowler's Toad"

    Also, for people who haven't made an account on the forum, because they just want the care info, I kept mine in a setup that looked like a red-eyed tree frog enclosure, but with lower humidity. Probably anywhere from 30-50 percent. They like to soak, but since they are so small, they could drown in a larger water dish, so get them something they can put their butts in, or if you need to use a large dish, make it easy for them to climb out of it if need be. Surprisingly, Amp loved to dig, so give them 2-4 inches of a soft, humidity holding soil, like eco-earth, coconut husk, or zoo-med jungle mix. (my personal favorite) They can eat surprisingly large prey, so you can feed small to medium crickets, adult mealworm beetles, earthworms/night-crawlers, fruit flies, other flies, and for a skinny or sick one, tiny wax-worms. You can expect them to live for about 8-10 years, but in order to get them, since nobody has them for sale or is breeding them (Maybe zoos, but they won't give you their frogs) so you will have to catch one. Notice I said one, not a whole breeding population. They will probably be fairly old when you get them (anywhere from 4-6 years) and will have a shorter life-span, but will make excellent captives nonetheless. For people who want a dart frog, this is a good practice species, if you can supply small enough foods for a chorus frog, than you can supply small enough foods and care for PDFs.

    Oh, I forgot to say what type of tank that they need! Two can live in a large kritter keeper if you are in a pinch, but they generally do better in a 5-any size higher terrarium, that can be either tall or wide. Their adaptivity is simply amazing! Oh, and someone else on frog forum apparently kept these guys as well. http://www.frogforum.net/other-frogs...rus-frogs.html
