P aurotaenia Green froglets looking for new moss! New moss already found!
The first pic is one of the adults, so you can see how their color will change.

Ameerega ingeri
It took Tesoros de Colombia 8 years to legally export these. We are very fortunate to be one of the first to have them in America. Hopefully next year we'll have froglets to share with everybody.

I'm hoping to swap for a calling male. I can meet at American Frog Day or make other arrangements.

Ameerega trivittata Red!
These are quite uncommon in the hobby, but I hope to change that. Ameerega tend to be very protective of their eggs, which is exactly what you're seeing here. The male is guarding a large clutch of eggs in the film canister.

Update #3 on the T+ Albino leucomelas. This is the final update as eggs. The next images will be of tadpoles. Out of the 3, one has already hatched, and the other 2 will probably hatch very soon. Those vein like things are external gills. They will mostly disappear in the next day or two as it hatches. In the wild the parents would then transport the newly hatched tadpole to water. In this case I'll place it in a little cup with conditioned RO water. Look forward to more updates soon! See below to catch up on the project!
I recently started this project to increase the gene pool for chocolate leucomelas. I paired a chocolate leucomelas (which is just a standard leuc that is T+ Albino) with a stand leucomelas. I expected all the offspring to be standard het chocolate. Granted these haven't even hatched yet, but this is what chocolate eggs look like. The female is chocolate, and the male is standard. So I'm wondering, was the male already het for chocolate, or does this female have a dominant chocolate gene? My first guess is that the male was already het for chocolate.
Hopefully these 3 turn into healthy froglets and have many more to follow.

Update #2 on the T+ Albino leucomelas. We started with 3 good eggs and all 3 are still looking really good. You can see a lot more development now--eyes, external gills, head, and tail.

Something surprising happened. I was not expecting this clutch to be albino.
