How healthy are Fantasy Frogs?

[NialR35]

One thing I'd like to point out is that I rarely and barely have seen any full grown samurais, green apples, red fantasies. I really wonder why.... I want for my next frog to be either I of those....but is there any reason why you barely find people with full grown adult samurais/green apples/fantasies?

Do they have tendencies to be unhealthy/ die sooner/more fragile? I'd figure they'd be more of them around since their colors/patterns make them very appealing.

I don't own any frogs, so my advice should be taken with a grain of salt - I'm only doing research at this stage. I can't really comment on red fantasy frogs or samurais because I haven't read a lot about either. One thing I've seen mentioned repeatedly however, is that green apple frogs have health complications. Despite excellent care, many die young. I'd consider green apple frogs "special needs", and only consider them if you're prepared to deal with complications down the road.

that is excellent, that is what we keep telling people always do your research first and only then decide on/if you are gonna get someone.
you're right about green apples.

I'm really curious about the red phase fantasies, I'm sure there are people here who've had them. I'd like to know if any of them reached adult hood. I still see baby red fantasies when I go to reptile shows, but I'll never buy one...Here's a pic I found. Very pretty.
