I figure I'd make a new thread on this very topic.... basically a continuation from the pumilio morph discussion.
I would like to start a new discussion on which dart frogs breeding lines can be mixed and which ones should not be mixed...
Correct me if I am wrong but species like imitator which locality is from a small region is basically one natural morph/line and different breeder's breeding lines can be "interbreed".
However, what do you think about ventrimaculatus? There are several locality data: Peru and Brazil. Mixing different breeder's breeding lines could create, what Randy said, "mutts" or "pet grade" (was: "hobbyist strain").
I guess I would like to know what people opinions on that...
