Re: What

Rick, or anyone else

what are some of the better, practical, sources of dietary carotenoid supplements. I've been gut loading the crickets for my tomato frogs with a "color enhancing" fish food and with dried krill. I probably don't do it as much as I should so right now my frogs are more orange than red, although D. guineti do not normally get as red as D. antogilli and they are still not full grown. Anyway, is there anything else that works? Any powdered supplement or anything that can be dusted on crickets. I know Kent used to make a product for birds called "radiance" or something like that that was supposed to help color animals up but I have not been able to locate it through any of my distributors and I have never thought about it when I am online.

thanks for any ideas.

p.s. if anyone else is into frogs and knows where I can find some cbb babies of Discophus antogilli I would be eternally gratefull. These frogs are #1 on my species to acquire list and have been for a long long time. I haven't seen them for sale in about 5 years and the last time I did I was a little hesitant to pay $100.00 for a baby frog.
