I knew one of my pairs of Saripiqui pumilio had transported a bit ago, and I've been watching the one visible tadpole develop, but apparently they had transported more that I didn't know about before that clutch. Yesterday I went to feed and there was a froglet that had come out of another brom! Finally! Hopefully there are more to come.

I'll try an get pictures when it comes back out.

Good luck with that. Since posting my picture of my Rio Branco I haven't been able to see him :O

Congrats on the success! Keep up the good work.

He isn't quite ready to venture out of the brom yet, so I think I can catch him sitting on one of the leaves again. I've seen him 3 times, just haven't gotten a good picture. Once he's in the leaf litter, I'll accept defeat

Thanks!

Thanks! They are pretty awesome. I'm working with 3 pairs, the colors are all pretty crazy looking.

Hopefully this froglet doesn't turn orange. He looked like a bright Escudo though so that's a good sign.

Well no picture yet but I saw him! He's in the leaf litter and eating springs like crazy. Put on a bit of size pretty quickly and he's really coloring up.

Now if I could just get a good picture!

we can maybe work that deal...Ive been seeing and hearing a lot of courting. I think theyre hiding eggs from me, but Im not about to disturb them. They have a ton of film cans to deposit in.

Hopefully you just start finding froglets then

They have been on my list for a long time.

Their call is pretty quiet compared to my vanzos or imis, I was suprised. I have an unrelated bloodline or two coming to me this spring, so Im really REALLY hoping to put a lot of work in with this species and work with Chris Miller on a taxon management plan for these guys. This is a frog we are in real danger of losing in this hobby if we dont get it together

Sounds like a good idea. I would like to form an unrelated group someday. Maybe we could work out a deal in the spring or something. I should have quite a few froglets of various Ranitomeya and pumilio in a few months.
