Thanks Stu! Hope everything is going well with you. I really wish I had saved the tag, I love that brom as well. I think it was Neo...something... "Rio de Janeiro" but I'm not certain.

Hey dude,how goes it?
Field are the Eldorardo your first pums? anyway beautiful pics pure class mate,they all look really well.
Oh mate last time we spoke we were talking about broms,I've really had my eyes opened recently seeing a few in the flesh rather than pics on the web has made so much of a difference,i can't believe i've not picked up on the width of some broms' leaves and hence the water holding capacity of them,its quite funny actually in the last week i have aquired broms from germany and the US,both brought here by fellow froggers,i feel another winter of no space for plants is heading my way
Tis all looking a credit to you mate

Hey Stu,
Hope everything is going well with you! Yep, the Eldos are my first pums...I must admit I'm enamored with them. Not as visible as my other frogs, but I still love em. One is getting super rotund, I'm thinking female...just waiting to hear some calling from the other one (a suspected male). Glad to hear you got some nice broms, as I've said before I'm not a huge brom guy, but I'm slowly starting to get more interested in them. Some good friends sent me these last week (for free...frog people are the best!):

[Stu&Shaz]

yup.the best,same thing happens here mate

Few new pics:







Next step with the Koetari/Kutari is getting them sexed, paired off, and moved into new digs...plenty of calling from the Intermedius but no eggs yet, I feel like it'll be any day now.

[Rusty_Shackleford]

All kidding aside, you've got some really nice frogs going buddy. I'm looking forward to seeing your collection continue to grow.

[fieldsmith]

Thanks bubba...may have some cool new frogs comin soon (if I can find room lol).

[Rusty_Shackleford]

More vivs? Sweet!!! I think if you build some platforms, above head level you can squeeze in some more vivs. Sure it will be a pain to feed and actually watch frogs. But you'll be using 100% of available space. Or you can have a built in viv under your bed...keep frogs in your dresser drawers...

[Rusty_Shackleford]

Very nice buddy!!!! What did you use on the sidew of that exo?

Release the Kraken!!!

[fieldsmith]

Thanks bubba! I used Kraken ink...took a couple weeks to milk it, but it was worth it I think...side note milking a Kraken is dirty work! Actually it's just silicone and peat/coco

I've always heard the toughest part was getting them in the mood hock:

Looks great! On that second picture, do you happen know what the variegated vining plant is between the leaf the intermedius is on, and the brom back behind?

Field was telling me this story one time about him milking a bull..........

[fieldsmith]

Hey Chuck, its Pellionia repens...I've been really happy with it so far, but its a little harder to find than Pellionia pulchra.

Jon, you are confusing the time you milked a bull with the time I milked a Yeti...waaaaaay different.

[Chuck Lawson]

Thanks Field; I'll put that one on my "watch for" list.

Not often but just occasionally you two scare me,thanks guys funny as hell :lol:

Field the stock still looks amazing credit due buddy,any yeti eggs.....oops imi eggs yet? Are the pums calling?

Stu

[fieldsmith]

Hey Stu,
Unfortunately no yeti eggs yet...I'll put you and Shaz at the top of my waitlist
No imi eggs yet...tons of calling though. At least one looks very female so I'm keepin the hope alive!
No calling yet from the pums...at least I don't think so. I set up a rack in the hall (had to free up some space in the bedroom) so I don't get to hear as much calling from the quieter guys.
Hope all is well with you both
