Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I think in captivity theyre not poisonous to humans. Its the certain bugs they eat that produce the Toxins on their skin. Correct me if im wrong anyone!

Thank You for the information, I am thinking about buying dart frogs for mating but wasn't sure if you could handle them or not, if i own an animal i don't want it to sit in its cage all day.

Frogs arent good pets to hold and play with. theyre better left in their cages. Frogs are highly sensitive to their Surroundings so any chemicals on your hands at the time, including soap could possibly harm the frog. If youre looking into getting a pet frog, i would recommend a Whites Tree Frog, or "Dumpy Tree Frog" as they are also known. Theyre much larger than Dart frogs and are easier to care for and much hardier. You can also handle them more often but do so carefully since they still are sensitive.

Yes it is possibly to breed animals from the same clutch, its just bad breeding practice. It's not too hard to get unrelated RETFs, you might want to eventually trade animals off, or get some unrelated froglets, and breed unrelated males to females.

they arent poisonous in captivity but you still cant really handle them, it stresses them out alot. it can even kill a few species cause they get so stressed. they need big tanks for such small animals and they do best with live plants so you kinda have a small jungle in your room, its better observing them and there behaviour so you dont need to hold them.
