Best Beginner Poison Dart Frogs

[@danielleb.7055]

I've always been into dart frogs for the frogs but also because of the amazing enclosures you can have for them.

[@christinabrowitt6111]

Thanks for including the song they make. I love hearing them!

[@galeotx]

Awesome video! I would like to comment about the last option of frog. I’ve been a experienced hobbyist for about 8 years and also being a zoo keeper for the last 2 years I have to say yes Leuc’s, Tincs and auratus are great beginners frogs as well as some other species like epipedobates they are hardy they can withstand temperatures ranging from high 60’s to high 70’s. You can also mist them as much as you want and will be completely fine. But Terribilis on the other hand have specific parameters that need to be met. First thing’s first if you get into buying Terribilis as your first frog just know this is a intermediate level frog. Terribilis are prone to having rot foot when the enclosure stays to wet. This can lead to them losing their feet and potentially cause them to pass due to their immobility. They are also supposed to be kept as close to 75 as you can. This is also a big one, dusting your feeders with calcium is a huge must with these guys. They are probably one of the biggest if not the biggest dart frogs in the world and they need the calcium to steer away from MBD and it also need the calcium for their egg production since they lay more then 20 eggs at a time. I hope this helps, please give me feedback and hopefully I can answer more questions about dart frogs that you may have. 👍🏼

Thank you very much for that information especially about the temps and the rot foot from moisture I like the boldness but will start clear for now.

Thank you so much for this. Yesterday, I filmed a Bunble Bee Dart Frog at a shop, namely Squire's Garden Centre. I am curious about them and I clicked on your video. I do now want to own one (yet), but it is nice to find out more about them. I really like to film animals. Many thanks for your video.

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

Appreciate you watching man! I really do love watching dart frogs. What kind would you get?

[@pumpkinchow]

Definitely going to look into getting a few of those bad boys I’ve always wanted a nice bioactive enclosure with dart frogs. Now I know a few that would make great options. Thanks for doing this video 🙌

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

Again thank you for watching and your continued support! So what did you decide for your poison, lol?🤢🤮

[@pumpkinchow]

I’d order them now but I already purchased one of the largest frog species and can’t wait for that to arrive. But definitely after he’s all settled in and doing well I’ll start narrowing down which dart frogs I want. I wish you the best and hope you have a great day bud 🙋‍♂️✌️

[@parabatx]

​@@mightymorphingreptiles hi sorry how should I effectively raise and sell the tadpoles at the same speed as the breeding. I can't house very many

[@shannonfbc1]

Needing a large enclosure isn't a downfall that's a bonus who doesn't want a larger slice of heaven in their home

[@krknfmkr8919]

Since they can live for as much as 20 years I would call it more than a hobby

[@vivalavalentina]

This is a wonderfully informative and entertaining video. Makes getting into dart frogs so much easier. Kudos to you and your channel, man. Have a sub.

[@lukasstewart590]

For this vid being out for a year+ I appreciate it I just got Bumble bees and I WANT MOREEE!!!

[@Caroline-wq4pw]

I just got a poison dart frog and he is so cute I’m so happy

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

They’re amazing! What kind of dart frog did you get?

@@mightymorphingreptiles heyy it’s been 4 months and I wanted to watch this again and found my own comment😂 Sadly my other frog passed away because it was born sick 😔but there is always something good in life and I got 2 new frogs that are healthy 😆

[@aduinsmokesomuch8666]

My local pet store has some tinctorious and I loved the color. Now I’m going down a rabbit hole searching them up

[@akechijubeimitsuhide]

They look so cute! I had no idea you could keep them until recently.

[@snicker_38gaming]

I love the thumbnail and I love biology!

[@MsTreefox]

Great video! I actually picked up some phyllobates (mints) at the PACNWRS a week or two ago. I was looking for auratus but most places were sold out already. I got sold on how their skin looks like old distressed paint. I'm absolutely in love with them!

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

Thank you! I’m so jealous that you got mints!😳 That was a really fun show! :)

[@puzzymasternawest3121]

Thanks for the advice, I’ll probably get the luecomelas

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

You’re welcome! They’re my personal favorite when it comes to looks wise

[@JvD1985]

I want a vivarium with dart frogs. But if they lay eggs that much.. I don’t have so much room for so many frogs. Advise how to prevent this because I don’t want to be a frog seller 😅

[@MrMixes1]

Haha I’ll take a few

[@markomatthee4083]

Awesome video, i’ve been wondering where can i buy myself one?

[@RustyShacklefardd]

Strawberry and Azures are my faves

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

Dude I really want one of the strawberry’s someday!

[@zackmartinez.]

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

They’re amazing and I love spending my mornings with them. If you had to choose which species would you get?

[@christopherhobbs3929]

HOLY SHIT TRAN!!!!!

👀 oh my flapjacks! 🥸 you’ve out done yourself! 🧙‍♂️👑 🎉🙌

[@AcuariosJV]

Hola compañero,me encantan tus vídeos porque haces vídeos de las las dendrobates tinctorius, etc. Saludos 🤗🇪🇸

[@dennisbrown7079]

I’ve never laughed so hard while learning 😂😂😂

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

Gotta have fun while learning right?🥹

[@ricardoarchangel28]

So can you mix them together if you want to? Or should you keep them separated?

[@alexmenke7131]

Separate always

[@torpedo1306]

Just curious if it is possible to have different species in the same enclosure? Or should each type have its own area? Nicely done video, the explanation of each frogs sounds and behavior was quite informative, thanks.

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

I would not keep the different species in the same enclosure

[@surfpanther]

My sister keeps red eyes....Amazon milks....and giant monkey waxy tree frogs and of course darts.... frogs are great! My favorite is still the red eyes....

[@gvue4396]

What are the life spans?

[@dontmindmyname1234]

how tall is this guy? also dart frogs are illegal in my area alongside other non native frogs so these videos are the closest thing i can do

[@narriot3018]

Hello just curious what do you do with the tadpoles that you can't keep?

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

Sell em. Or discard the eggs

[@narriot3018]

@@mightymorphingreptiles any tips on how to sell them?

[@bubbles7s7]

Can you mix breeds? Also, is it best to get a male and female? Looking to get two

[@Gabrieladogmom777]

Please do not mix breeds

[@kasaro3678]

Can you please do a care guide on the phyllobates terribilis

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

At some point I will make a dart frog care guide in the future, thanks for watching!

[@1ikegen]

I pick the blue poison dart frogs

[@trevorbraden5448]

Who do you recommend buying or ordering the frogs from...... and I would like to have 4 or 5 if possible in an 18x18x18 vivarium...... what species would you recommend..... and I am definitely new never owned any frogs before

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

Joshs frogs is a good place to look.

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

That enclosure would be to small for that many frogs. Rule of thumb is 1 frog per 10 gallons

[@trevorbraden5448]

@Mighty Morphing Reptiles cool man thanks I assumed 4 or 5 might have been too many 😀

[@trevorbraden5448]

@Mighty Morphing Reptiles so the one I got is around 25 gallon...... so 2 frogs?...... What would ya recommend for a first time newb.....

[@thoughtgaming492]

The youtuber voice is making me cringe so hard.

[@zanegreay7157]

love how corny you are!!! embrace it!!! thanks for the info!

Hahah thanks man! I like to think of my self as just another corny kid on the internet!

[@ghinannafsiaqila4629]

Inch 😩 use cm please 🥺🥺

[@tamaraisonline]

1 inch = 2.54 cm its not that hard. If you dont want to calculate for yourself..ask google :3

[@swipestripe]

Any arboreal varieties?

[@mightymorphingreptiles]

Not as a begginer dart frog. But look into oophaga species
