:evil: like i said i'll let ya know once i'll settle up with the guy. i already haven't been able to get a hold of him. another crazy thing is they were all in the same cup, two survived actually. i was supposed to get 6 frogs and he sent 8. guess trying to be nice. the two that survived are a subadult alanis about 3/4-1'' and a subadult cobalt 1 1/2" (skinny!). i hope these 2 don't die! hopefully he'll be straight forward with me. i appreciate him giving me 2 extra frogs but what does it matter when 6 are dead?! just goes to show the ones that died were too small to be shipped. they couldn't be more than a week out of the water. and who would ship 6 tiny frogs with a sub adult and an almost full grown (8 total) in the same cup? and i agree with ya....a shot right in the face! :evil:

Top right azureus looks like it's been dead for some time. Are you willing to give the name of person/company that shipped these? What kind of packaging did they use?>

I can't believe someone would send them all together like that. It looks like the two on the top right were picked up off the carpet! Sorry for you loss, I hope everything works out.

I agree with Dane that frog on the top right looks like it was dead before he was even shipped. Only one frog in that pic has decent weight.

Looking at the limbs it is obvious (unless they are totally dessicated) that these frogs were starved. They have no weight in their limbs whatsoever, a sure sign of not being fed. It almost looks that they were spindly but my guess would be that they have not been fed for a few weeks.

Those azureus look like they're just a few days out of the water, definitely way too small to be shipped. Every frog in that pick looks like they were in poor health even before they were shipped. Shame on that breeder....

Does this royally piss anyone else off?! That is outrageous! Sorry that I'm a little fired up- I pray that this person isn't an active dendroboard member. They clearly wanted to make a quick buck and have no consideration for the frogs at all nor the customer.

So when are we going to find out who this is?
