Just got 4 of these guys in today! They are so fat and active...I might have a new favorite frog...I can't wait til my husband gets home to see 'em!

Just wait until you hear them call! They are one of my favorite frogs. They look good.

They do look yellow to me as well, but were sold to me as orange. I know there are different shades of orange...maybe some more experienced froggers can chime in.

I listened to the Terribilis call on mistking and it sounds awesome! I can't wait!

Very nice looking little guys. They look orange to me in the second picture, the other pictures it looks like they are a tad over exposed which may wash some of the color out of the frogs.

Either way though, terribilis are wonderful frogs, and complete pigs when it comes to eating, mine always have big full bellies on them!

My terribs are all orange terribs but some are just lighter than others. The ones that are lighter do look yellow in some lights.

Very nice, these guys are awesome!

I would recommend removing some of the smaller gravel as they age since they are known to pickup pretty large food items they may accidentally grab one of those small gravels bits with it.

Thanks for the tip Maureen...I wasn't aware. These are the first Phyllobates I have owned.
