To my surprise , I found a 4th pumi froglet this morning in the parental enclosure.
This froglet is from the same clutch that emerged on Feb 9th.
He looks fine. .... a little smaller than the others.

Dinner was nice and easy today ... and no hiding was needed
I put him in the grow-out enclosure with his 3 siblings.
I'm sure he feeling safer now. They are all out in the open.
He has joined the others on the philo leaves--- where they spend the night.

Better keep my eyes open




^ all 4 seen here- it's hard to get them all together



^ This frog is especially beautiful...evenly spotted and a brilliant red

They are gorgeous Lynn! How I wish I was close enough to you to purchase them from you! If you were up with parting with these 4 could I convince you to ship them if I paid for the shipping upfront?

Congrats on all your success with these. I've been meaning to ask you why you chose this particular species as opposed to "Blue Jeans"?

Hi Bryan,
Actually at the time I was making my purchase I knew they were priced as a pair.
Not a proven pair , but paired. That is basically what persuaded me.
It was more costly though, I think I paid $375 for the pair?

Their offspring are actually nicer looking ( IMO) than the parents.
I thought the nice red color might wash out a bit as they have grown, but has not happened--- yet, anyway.
They have nice ( very small) even black speckling.

Pumis are very easy to care for. My female is bold ...the male is shy and of an more orange color.

There were 'blue jeans' at the time.....I simply pick what is most aesthetically pleasing to me, I wanted something red.

Next up- blue /greenish O Pumilio

I really like the contrasting look of blue legs and red body. I also like the Bastimentos that are that orangish red with larger spots and a cream colored underbelly. Bri Bri are also nice along with the species that is solid red and the small speckling of black.

Unfortunately I'm just starting my thumbnail phase and Pumillios are going to be sometime down the road.

Did you get a chance to check out my Vent post?

Also...I'm planning on going to Frog Day and I'll be looking for any good deals on thumbnails. It just happened my sister lives down the street from the church where it's being held. Finally, a frog show that worked out in my benefit.

They look wonderful!

Lynn, will you add a pic or two to the fb page?

[Happy Frog]

Here is a website that I came across last week, in case any of you Pumillio fanciers haven't seen it. The green Pumillios that I really like are the ones called "Colon"

PUMILIO

Click on the link at the top of the page that says; Pics Of The Farm. That first picture will make you drool.
