CB Wallaces Flying Froglets (Rhacophorus Nigropalmatus) PRESALE ONLY- Arriving end of JULY

CB Wallaces Flying Froglets (Rhacophorus nigropalmatus)

Named after naturalist Alfred R. Wallace Adults get up to 10 cm long and females are noticeably larger than males . Their dorsal (top) surface is a vibrant, shiny green, while their undersides and inner thighs are bright yellow.Their defining feature is their extremely large hands and feet . The webbing between their toes is jet-black at the base and bright yellow toward the edges.

Originally from Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra, and Borneo but these are CB in North America . 

This is the rarer and larger species of flying/gliding frog compared to the more common but still rare Reinhardt flying frog which are smaller and often wild caught. Due to size and care need these are a mid to advanced keeper frog. 

These are Captive-Bred and hence the higher price as WC frogs almost always do poorly and die shortly after  and this is even more true of the flying frogs as wild animals rarely take crickets or other feeders.These are also an option for B.C. buyers looking for a legal large tree frog where most large tree frogs are restricted( banned in B.C.).

We are importing from the US and and will be releasing a limited number for mid/late July arrival.  Animals listed price includes animal costs/ import fees/shipping fees to Canada, but excludes shipping from BC to customers location( closest depot) which will show at checkout when you enter your address . All specimens are juveniles and unsexed. We are unlikely to offer animals that are not pre ordered anytime soon. If you are interested we recommend placing an order to hold the animals when they arrive.   

Care;  

• Orientation: Choose a tall, vertically oriented glass enclosure.
• Dimensions: Minimum size of 18x18x24 inches for a single adult.
• Ventilation: Ensure strong cross-ventilation alongside high moisture retention.

• Humidity: Maintain a constant relative humidity level between 70% and 80%.
• Misting: Mist the tank 1–2 times daily using exclusively dechlorinated water. 

• UVB Lighting: Provide a moderate 5% UVB light source to support natural activity.
• Photoperiod: Program a standard 12-hour day/night cycle.
• Substrate Base: Use a moisture-retaining blend of coconut husk, peat moss, and sphagnum moss.
• Drainage: Layer clay hydroballs underneath the substrate to prevent oversaturation.

• Primary Prey: Offer live, gut-loaded crickets, roaches, or silkworms.
• Variety: Supplement occasionally with hornworms or black soldier fly larvae.
