Amazon Milk Frogs are neither poisonous or illegal to own.

Well, not poisonous in the respect like a wild dart frog is poisonous. There is possibly some excretion of a sort that these frogs emmit that I am not aware of. I would say it is along the same lines of most other frogs though, that as long as you are not eating your frog, or rubbing them in your eyes, you would be fine ;) lol.

These guys grow 3 or 4 inches long, and sorta get fat and look much like a White's treefrog, not quite that large, but that is the best way I can describe it. One of my most favorite looking species, and I hope to set up an enclosure with a small group of them some day.

i wouldnt mind getting somemore information on them...where could i?

Hi does anyone know if their secretions are particularly harmful to other species such as Whites?

I love both species and was wondering if secretions would pose a huge problem. They wouldnt be living together but may meet at some point if i had both!
