accidental breeding?
#1
I have a pair of auratus, which I keep simply because they are beautiful. I got them both as froglets, so I have no idea what sex either one might be. From reading others posts, it seems that in order to successfully get a new froglet from them, I would have to interfere. I don't really want them to breed. What are the odds, that if I simply leave them alone, they would be able to reproduce successfully? Am I fairly safe from that, or should I be on the lookout?

If setup plays a role, they are in a 29 tall with a simple moss floor, some live plants, and a small shallow pond area (no running water).

Thanks in advance!

Hi Alyssa,
Welcome.
Given the correct conditions for proper health of your frogs, if they are a male and a female, there is a good chance they will breed. Whether they transport tads that develope into froglets is another thing , in and of itself.

Darts with parasites are analogous to mixed tanks, there are no known benefits to the frogs with either.


If tone is more important to you than content, you are at the wrong place.
