Eggs!!! R. ventrimaculata

[clownonfire]

Hello,

Well... After two long months of courting, our female laid eggs on Sunday in one of our egg deposit sites. My male has stopped singing and is perched on top of the canister, looking after the eggs.

I will be leaving them in the enclosure. I took the decision after speaking with Michael Lawrence. I know vents are not the greatest parents, or so they say, but I'll leave it to them.

If all goes well, I will be moving the family in the 29 gallon I have built a few months back. Even if they are arboreal, they will love the fully planted tank, and many climbing opportunities.

Eric

Thats awesome. Another new proud papa on the forum. Take lots of pictures of the tank showing the eggs. How did you setup the tank. Conditions....don't leave us hanging.

[DonLisk]

Yeah, what Mike said! And what time are viewing hours?

[clownonfire]

Thanks Lesley! I have moved everyone in the 29G. There's just the female that is behind on the old cube, hiding... There's a nice alluring trap waiting for her. I'll need to set up a shallow pond and I hope the eggs will morph. I'll keep you posted for sure with lots of pics!

[Jace]

Woot woot! Congratulations! Isn't it amazing how such tiny eggs can cause so much excitement???

And I agree with Lesley....obscene amount of photos are now required! Anything less will simply not do!

Congrats Eric! I can't wait to see the little tadpoles! Make sure you count them every day, vents are so small, you wouldn't want to loose any! XD;

Congrats Eric, They can and will do the work on thier own. I always let my breeding groups raise a few on their own before I consider pulling any eggs. It really doesnt hurt either because vents can easily raise a couple dozen or more froglets a year on their own. Lots of broms and film cans are a must.

And trust me it wont be hard to find them. The froglets will start popping up at feeding time soon enough.
