Absolutely beautiful frogs. Are these in private hands or a zoo? Too bad so many amphibs are doing so badly, especially lots of stunning frogs and toads like Atelopus sp.

Hence, the frogs AND TOADS like Atelopus. I got that they are toads, I just type faster than I think sometimes Razz Laughing
Still, stunning TOADS Cool Difficult to keep or just difficult to obtain?

Did he get these from the Netherlands? I just saw that a Dutch firm offers these as imports from Surinam. Not that expensive either.
Apparently you can keep them similar to dart frogs like tinctorius. Don't think they have been bred though.
