Most live 15 to 20 years. Some dendrobates sp. have lived 25+ in captivity.
That's what this build is for and why I'm doing a jungle gym approach. I've been thinking though about el cope auratus, but not sure they'd utilize the wood.
Vittatus are very underrated.
Is that a green & bronze auratus? How bold are they? I've only had el cope (very bold) & highland bronze ( very shy)
Yeah, I really like vittatus. They have a great call. The auratus are true costa rican. I'll let you know when I have some vittatus to rehome. They lay huge clutches of eggs. Not big climbers though. My leucs are all over, they use the whole viv.
True costa Ricans are getting harder to come by that's another one I'm looking at.
I have a temp tub for just such an occasion. If I'm not up to my ears in azureus by then. I caught this last night...the camera couldn't focus due to the fan running and leds
Nice. You're right, true costa ricans are tough to find. I'll have a few to rehome sometime for sure. Anymore most sold as costa rican are actually Hawaiian or Panama....or some random hybrid. The true costa ricans have a certain clean look that the others don't quite have.
That's what I've noticed as well. I really don't like the (insert color) & bronze deal either. Theyre just color variants of the same population. You can actually mix them if they came in the same import date which is just crazy to me.
The only breeders I have currently are the azureus. I took a huge hit this winter. I bumped the power cord to my heater before a left for a business trip. I lost my black foot Terribs, all but 1 orange terrib, suriname cobalts, bicolors, and all the growouts. I was able to bring back my male azureus from the brink of death.
