A QR CODE TO LINK DIRECTLY TO YOUR POISON DART FROG'S LINEAGE INFORMATION ! Welcome to The Oophaga Ledger This is the breeder's ledger; a day-by-day and month-by-month journal documenting each time an Oophaga froglet is removed from its parental enclosure. This journal is for Fern's Frogs® Oophaga genus/species froglets only . These notes serve as ongoing lab records and insights for dedicated Oophaga breeders. If you’re an Oophaga keeper and want to chat about “What’s On Deck ,” feel free to contact . Fern's Frog's complete collection (Dendrobates, Phyllobates, Ranitomeya, Oophaga) : "Our Breeders " ASK Chat GPT about Fern's Frogs® or about your own dart frog(s) What is an Oophaga pumilio "Cemetery " Bastimentos I do not label my offspring as such. I breed 8 paired Bastimentos are here at Fern's Frogs set with unrelated pairs including - 4 pair of "Gold Dust". Read more about "Gold Dust" below. Natural Habitat: They are found, specifically, in and around a "Cemetery" located on Isla Bastimentos in Bocas del Toro, Panama. They originate from the forests near this cemetery on Bastimentos Island, often found in areas near Red Frog Beach. Color Variability: Unlike many other pumilio populations, Bastimentos are highly polymorphic, with offspring displaying a wide array of colors regardless of parent color. The Bastimentos population is a perfect example of color polymorphism, meaning individuals can have different colorations despite belonging to the same species. Common Colors: The "Cemetery" locale is often dominated by shades of orange frogs, but also includes red, yellow , and gold variations, with a few other colors appearing with less frequently such as green and off white. A good read for all reptile and amphibian hobbyists: "The Lizard King" by Bryan Christy (ISBN -10-:0-446-58095-3) What is an Oophaga pumilio "Gold Dust" Bastimentos Answer: It is NOT a locale and likely began making their way "in" with all the Bastimentos in the early to mid 1990s Gold Dust Line Breeding : Captive bred 'Gold Dust' lines are bred to increase the % of this color occurrence in their offspring in captivity. In captivity, a true 'Gold Dust' is said to breed gold dust coloration in greater than 85% of the pair's offspring ( i.e. Ferns Frogs from breeder pairs 4, 5, 7, 8). When in doubt, there is no drawback to pairing two unrelated 'colors' and simply seeing what they produce. Note: breeding a minority color morph to a majority color morph would still occur in the wild—just less often—because fewer minority animals exist to begin with. Since those minority animals still breed within their local population, a minority-to-majority pairing isn’t far from the natural average. What is highly unlikely in nature is a very small minority breeding with another small minority (such as gold dust × gold dust). The possibilities alone make this color more rare. As well, studies show that pumilio tend to seek out brighter mates—with gold dust being less bright and less aposematic than orange, yellow, or red. Therefore, this points to same-minority pairings (gold dust × gold dust or any low% × low% combination) being unnatural in the wild—not impossible, but much less likely. OOPHAGA Froglets oow (out of water) December 2024- Current Upon completion of metamorphosis, Oophaga froglets are removed from the rearing/parental enclosure without delay. Juveniles are maintained for an initial period of 1–3 months in a controlled, simplified environment (“neonate bin”) to reduce stress and facilitate consistent feeding. Following this stage, froglets are transferred to structured grow-out enclosures where they remain for approximately six months prior to transfer of ownership.

Expert record keeping at Fern's Frogs. Poison Dart Frog lineage and breeding information for buyers. UUID database is maintained for each frog that is bred by Fern's Frogs. Passing Along Proper Husbandry FootPrints™ Do you know who bred your poison dart frogs ? Do you know how old they are? Do you know lineage information? Link to the Roots Keep it traceable Data entry has started. It's a huge project. Please stand by as records are updated and added We strongly encourage responsible stewardship among other keepers to ensure irreplaceable wild genetics remain as true as possible in the captive breeding setting for future generations of breeders and hobbyists. Research needs to be done PRIOR to acquisition and breeding. This is especially true for Pre-CITES lineage / legacy hobby lineage and newly "imported " locales of Oophaga pumilio. Fern's Frogs has handed out 3000 UUID cards; one for every dart frog purchased since 2014. Moving forward, the lineage infromation will be published here. A QR code will be used to acccess this information. The UUID database will continue privately. Please stand-by as Fern's Frogs makes this transition as we maintain a very large breeding collection; this an emormous amount of information. FootPrints™ — Digital Lineage Access Same Commitment ….. Smarter Delivery Fern’s Frogs is transitioning from individual handwritten ID cards to a QR‑code–based FootPrints™ system. When you purchase a dart frog bred Fern’s Frogs® simply scan the QR code on the business card provided at purchase to access that frog’s lineage information on our website. FootPrints™ remains our mark of origin and our commitment to responsible, transparent captive breeding. What WAS the FootPrints™ card? FootPrints™ is and will remain Fern’s Frogs® internal unique identification and lineage‑tracking system for each poison dart frogs bred by the sole breeder. This will continue without cards. Every frog bred by Fern’s Frogs is assigned a unique identifier once it is out of water (OOW). This identifier connects that individual frog to verified lineage records maintained by us, for our records. Since 2014, every Fern’s Frogs offspring has been entered into this system. This will continue for our records. What’s Changed? Instead of a handwritten ID card for each frog: You’ll receive a business card with a QR code at the time of purchase. Scanning the QR code brings you directly to the FootPrints™ lineage page on our website. This allows us to maintain accurate, centralized records while reducing physical cards and duplication. What has NOT changed: FootPrints™ still represents Fern’s Frogs® verified captive breeding. Lineage tracking remains a core responsibility of our breeding program. What Information Will Be Included When A Dart Frog Purchase Is Made On the Frog’s Container (at purchase, nothing will change): Genus Species Locale OOW (Out of Water) date On Our Website - On the 'Roots' page (Lineage Data Entry ( or via QR code): Lineage information of the parents Breeder‑maintained records tied to that specific frog’s offspring Historical data preserved for future reference This system is designed to follow the FROG, not the buyer. Privacy & Scope No personal buyer information is stored in any of our ‘private’records. Except for published lineage information, the breeder's private FootPrints™ database is not public. Our private data exists solely to track captive‑bred frogs and preserve lineage integrity to ensure continuity of responsible record‑keeping. Why Lineage Matters Maintaining lineage records is a minimum responsibility when breeding poison dart frogs in captivity. FootPrints™ serves as: A mark of origin A guarantee of captive breeding A tool to support ethical breeding decisions Our goal is to encourage these same practices throughout the dart frog community, reinforcing proper husbandry, mentorship, preserve genetic diversity, and long‑term sustainability of captive bred dart frogs. Occacionally a "Guest Breeder" will accompany Fern's Frogs at an expo. Lineage information within the FootPrints™ is for dart frogs bred ONLY by Fern's Frogs. Guest breeders inlvited to vend at an expo are experienced and will be willing to share lineage information with a buyer. Contact Us - Your thoughts matter to Fern's Frogs
