Mint Terribilis Dart Frog (Captive Bred)
  • Mint Terribilis Dart Frog (Captive Bred)

    Temperature: They can tolerate a temperature range of 65 F to 80 F, but prefer temperatures in the low to mid 70s. Temperatures over 80F are dangerous. Poison Dart Frogs of the genus Phyllobates are notoriously sensitive to warmer temperatures.

     

    Humidity: Like most poison dart frogs, terribs prefer a humidity range of 70 – 100%, but can tolerate humidity down to 50% for short periods of time if the frogs have access to water. Low humidity levels, especially without access to water, can quickly be fatal.

     

    Size: Adult female terribilis are larger, measuring in at approximately 2 inches. Male terribs tend to be a bit smaller, averaging about 1.75 inches at maturity. Size is not always a good indication of sex, however - even when dealing with frogs that are several years old! 

     

    Age: Phyllobates terribilis 'Mint' is capable of living well over 20 years in captivity under ideal conditions, although a lifespan of 10 years is more common. 

     

    Feeding: Like most poison dart frogs, young terribilis prefer smaller foods. Terribilis are very unusual in that they are capable of eating much larger prey items than most other poison dart frogs. All ages of poison dart frogs will enjoy springtails and isopods. All feeder insects should be dusted with a vitamin/mineral supplement.
