1986 PPBCa 0.0.27 metamorphosed during 1986.
1986 ROYS 0.0.73 metamorphosed during 1986. The eggs were laid on
plastic plant leaves, the leaf upon which the eggs were
fixed is placed in a container at 25-27 degrees C. with
enough water to touch the edges of the egg mass - the eggs must
not be submerged. The eggs are sprayed every 4 to 5 hours to
keep them clean and moist. Hatching occurs after 10-11 days if
the temperature has been held constant during incubation.
Tadpole care:
Newly hatched tadpoles are for the first 2 to 3 days very weak
and they are fed on a watery paste made from powdered Tetra-min
fish food, this is changed to whole flakes of fish food and
trout pellets on the fourth day. Each tadpole must be housed
separately to prevent cannibalism, the tadpoles are kept in
1cm of water at 26-27 degrees C., the depth of water is increased
as they develop, up to 2 1/2 cm of water. The back legs have
formed by the 39th day and the front legs appear on the 48th
day, by day 50 the black and green markings are noticeable.
Newly metamorphosed froglets are kept in the same conditions
as the adults.

1989 SANF 0.0.8 metamorphosed during 1989. Our group of Dendrobates
are housed in a large tank 3' X 1.5' X 1.5'. Pebbles, soil and
green moss make up the substrate. To provide hiding areas and
water sources several plants are placed inside. The enclosure
is misted three times a day. We place magnolia leaves and
petri dishes in for them to lay eggs. We get eggs throughout
the year, usually two to five at a time. This past year we
have successfully raised 8 young. After the eggs are laid we
pull them and set them up on damp paper towels in petri dishes.
Once the tadpoles begin to form individuals are placed in
jars half filled with distilled water. Once the legs have
formed and the tail is absorbed they are placed in small
tanks with sphagnum moss.

breeding groups producing 33 tadpoles. Eggs were allowed to hatch
as tadpoles in the enclosure. When tadpoles are free swimming
the adult frogs or the keeper moves them to "tadpole cups"
Cups are left in with the adults and tadpoles are fed in the
individual cups. Live Daphnia is used as a food source. When
the froglets develop hind legs they are transferred to a tank
with others to wait for total metamorphoses. From tadpole to
transformed was 82 days (1), 85 days (1), 104 days (1), 106
days (1), 107 days (1), 112 days (3), 158 days (1), and 164

with top soil and sheet moss. In Mar they are kept in a 65
gallon tank that is sloped with a land section and water
section. During the next few weeks the frogs are rained
on, and amplexus was observed. Egg mass was laid 3 Apr,
and begain to hatch 5 Apr. First metamorphosis took place
26 May. In Jul it was decided to hormonally induce a pair.
The frogs were rained on a week before injecting. One
pair was kept together and injected with LHRH. Egg mass
was laid 7 Jul and started hatching 9 Jul 1994.

stimulates egg-laying. Eggs laid in holes in the ground
excavated and refilled by the female. Eggs go through direct

80 - 90 % mortality, partially due to cannibalism. (that
still leaves lots of frogs).

1997 HONH 0.0.28 froglets during 1997. Two males and 7 females in a
breeding tank of 1/2 land and 1/2 water. Ambient air temperature
ranged from 76 - 82 degrees F. The first egg mass was found on 10
Feb in a blanket of sphagnum moss, but did not develop. On 12
Feb another mass was found and on the 15th there was movement
in the mass. This mass was removed along with the moss and
placed at the edge of the water in a nursery tank. On the 19th
tadpoles entered the water and the same day the breeding tank
adults were set up with 3/4 water - 1/4 land. The adults quickly
laid more eggs. On Apr 16 aquatic (?) predators had consumed all
of the developing tadpoles in the nursery tank, and the breeding
tank had four new tadpoles hatched out. From this tank froglets
began emerging 13 Jun 1997.

Philautus romeri
Romer's Tree Frog
1992 MELA 0.0.? metamorphosed during 1992. : The original group of
adults was received at MELA in late April, and males started
calling almost immediately. The first spawn was deposited
in early May and the last in late May. Spawn size ranged
from 20 - 250 eggs, which hatched after 3-4 days at water
temperature of 23 - 26 degrees C. Newly-hatched tadpoles
were 5 - 7 mm long and fed readily on dry fish food and
chopped endive/lettuce. Back legs started to appear after
35 days and metamorphosis was completed after 45 - 65 days.
Metamorphosing frogs were 6 - 8 mm body length.
Both the original adults and the F1s bred again in late 1992 -
Nov onwards, and F2 froglets have subsequently been produced.
However, these are smaller at metamorphosis than the F1s,
and spawn size is smaller from the F1s than from the original
wild-caught frogs.
