Exciting news! I will be receiving 5 P. terribilis "yellow" from Understory Enterprises this coming Thursday!
Michael Lawrence (Poison Beauties) is the man behind these new frogs. I can't thank him enough for the terribs! I'll post pictures as soon as I get them!
Eric
Awsome!! You're gettng 5!! Those are nice big frogs, I was looking into the mints. They act like Lil dogs in a pack. The call is cool too! There's good utube videos, look forward to seeing yours!! Hint, hint . . .
It wouldn't be nice if I didn't post a link to Understory Enterprises' terribs page: Phyllobates terribilis | Understory Enterprises.
Congrats on the terribilis!
Congrats....looks like a frog room is going to be in your future.![]()
Yes! We are planning to start working on that this Summer. It would be part frog room for me and part studio for Sara. We have a very large room that is calling for it!
And it's confirmed. I have received an email from Understory Enterprises this morning and we are picking up the terribs at the airport Thursday morning. What a glorious week!
How lucky you are to have all the room for these amazing new frogs! I know you'll enjoy them, and I can't wait to see pictures!![]()

Thank you, Kisa. We do have space, limited with kids, but both Sara and I are willing to compromise in living quarters for our respective passion.
How are your frogs doing? Your Whites and Apollo and Artemis?
E.
You're so lucky to have a wife like Sara.I hope if I ever have the occasion for a frog room, Justin (bf) will support me as well.
Thanks for asking! They're all doing fine, presumably. Apollo and Artemis are a joy to have, really interesting frogs, like Mike Novy told me once "They're just damn weird frogs." XD I love monkey's, their mannerisms are just a riot to experience. Once you're full from your dart binge you should see if you have room for a few Monkey's, they're amazing. ^ ^
The White's are doing great so far, Bruce Campbell's still fat, but I'm seeing a little improvement on his flab. XD Bruce Wayne is just as blue as ever, though both of them seem to be having pretty strange sleeping habits lately. They're both awake for a little while during the day, and sometimes I find them sleeping all night. But I'm not concerned I think otherwise their fine. The new blue eyes are settling in, they're so different personality wise I couldn't mix them up even if they were the same color. XD Bruce Willis is skittish and crazy, active all the time, jumping around, and Paul Newman is just calm and quiet. Really opposite ends of the spectrum. They're still settling in though, trying to get used to their new surroundings. A 32 gallon, 20 inches tall, is quite a large environment for two baby frogs. But they'll get over it eventually. XD
How about your others? I'd love to see more pictures of Google if you get the chance, he really is a pretty little frog. ^ ^

Funny that you say this, Don. I was actually wondering how will we ever move when the time will come....
@Kisa: Frogs are doing great. My vents just got moved into a 29G from them minuscule cube. The female tool some adjusting but our male has been exploring since day one. Moved the FBT into the office to make space in the living room for the 50G. Our bumble bee walking toad is shy, but seems happy (she really is wonderful).
As for Google, harder to take in pics. He is really active at night, he will croak a good portion of the night. But I am usually sleeping or at bed during that time. So when I see him, he is usually sleeping on a plant. Harder to take pictures of him...
Today is the day. The frogs were already deposited at the London, Ontario Airport by Mark Pepper...
Just a few hours before picking them up now...

Isn't it? If it wasn't for the extreme fatigue my wife and I have from the sleepless 13-month old baby we have, I think I would have suffered from insomnia last night.
Up since 5:45. Half a pot of coffee down. I'm off to work and Sara is picking up our frogs.
This will be a long day.
Ok. They are home and they are all alive, says Sara.
She had quite the story though... I told her they were bold, and to check for their viability when she got them. Well she did. And opened the container home. And they jumped out. One of them got out of the viv and my wife said she had quite the adventure getting it back in the viv. She had to make a few modifications to the acrylic top as they were climbing all the way to the top and trying to get away. I had told her that as adult they wouldn't climb so much, but omitted to let her know that it wasn't the case as froglets...
Anyway, she says they are beautiful, four are very bold, one less. I'll be posting pics soon.
That rocks and congrats Eric.
I can see my wife chasing one around the house.... I'd be laughing to hard to help her.
Can't wait to see pics too.

Thanks for the updates on your other frogs, Eric, I'm glad to hear they are doing well. ^ ^
And as for the new ones, how exciting!Too bad daddy wasn't there to pick them up...but I hope to see some pictures soon!
It sounds like Sara handled that mishap very well, I don't know what I would do if one of my frogs escaped! >< It would be a nightmare.
I wonder how big they are now? Maybe a comparison picture so we can all see their size? O:
