I have been considering getting a few of these for quite some time. I would really like to get a good book about them and take some time to read and decide whether I want to make that jump or no. If anyone has read any good books, sites, or has good knowlede they want to pass along, I would love to hear it.
Thanks,
Ted

Check out
Poison Dart Frogs
Care in captivity
by Ralf Hessulhaus ( think thats correct)
it may be out of print, but I can let you borrow my copy if you really want to.
Or if you need the ISBN # , I can PM you with it when I get home.

I'll check around for that book. Usually you can find a used copy...and ebay is a wonderful thing. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]
Thanks for the suggestion Matt.

LMAO!!
Ok...B&N has an out of print copy of that book for the low, low price of $50.50. WHAT A STEAL. The book only list for probably $10 when it was brand new. I think that maybe I will keep looking. If I don't find something else good, I might take you up on your offer to borrow it Matt.

Actually, I bought my 2nd print copy for 15$ at a herp show in 95.
HA!
I have seen it go for 30 on ebay.
Its a pretty in demand book.
Its one of the more complete writings on the subject, done by someone with great knowledge on the subject, not some guy who has written books about dogs, hamsters, and snakes (ehem, TFH publications)
I dont think I have ever seen a publisher have writers with such a broad scope of interests.
LMAO!

poison dart frog is more common...dart poison frog is also used as is poison arrow frogs...doesn't matter though...as far as common names go, one is as good as the other. If you want to be specific about a certain frog you will have to use scientific names ...cause noone will know which pretty blue dart frog you are talking about unless you specify.
