Other Names (How it Got Its Names)
Commonly called the El Dorado Poison Dart Frog.
The genus name Oophaga means “egg eater,” referencing their unique parental care where females feed unfertilized eggs to tadpoles.
“El Dorado” comes from the locality where this morph is found in Panama, with the name meaning “the golden one.”
Characteristics
Brilliant and highly variable color morph, with golden yellow to orange tones, often with irregular black or dark green mottling.
Smooth, small-bodied dart frog with diurnal (daytime) activity.
Known for elaborate parental care.
Recommended Vivarium Size
Minimum: 18” x 18” x 18” for a pair.
Ideal: 24” x 18” x 18” or larger, heavily planted with bromeliads, vines, and climbing structures.
Must have leaf litter and ample hiding spots to reduce stress and aggression.
Temperature
Daytime: 72–78°F (22–25°C).
Nighttime: 68–72°F (20–22°C).
Avoid prolonged temperatures above 80°F.
Humidity
80–100%.
Consistent misting and access to bromeliads or film canisters for egg/tadpole deposition.
Size of Frog
Adults average 0.75–1 inch (2–2.5 cm).
Life Span
8–12 years in captivity with proper care.
Feeding
Primary diet: fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster and D. hydei).
Supplemental prey: springtails, isopods, pinhead crickets.
Feed daily; dust feeders with calcium and multivitamins several times per week.
Color/Pattern
Typically golden yellow to orange dorsal color with irregular black or dark green patches.
The El Dorado morph is prized for its rarity and striking, metallic-like golden appearance.
Social Behavior
Territorial, especially males.
Best kept in pairs or very carefully managed small groups in large vivarium.
Aggression is more likely in confined spaces or with same-sex individuals.
How to Determine Sex
Males: slightly smaller, more vocal (trilling call), often defend territories.
Females: larger, rounder bodies, especially when gravid.
How to Breed
Provide broad leaves, bromeliads, or film canisters as egg-laying sites.
Males call to attract females, and eggs are laid on smooth, moist surfaces.
Females transport tadpoles to water-filled bromeliads or similar sites.
Tadpoles are fed with unfertilized eggs until metamorphosis.
Other Names (How it Got Its Names)
Commonly called the Strawberry Poison Dart Frog or Blue Jeans Dart Frog.
Oophaga means “egg eater,” referencing the species’ unusual parental care where females feed unfertilized eggs to tadpoles.
The nickname Blue Jeans comes from their unique look — a bright red/orange body that looks like a “strawberry” paired with blue-colored hind legs resembling denim jeans.
Characteristics
Small, brightly colored frog with a striking two-tone appearance.
Highly active, alert, and bold for their size.
Famous for their elaborate parental care behaviors.

Provide plants such as bromeliads to retain water and support tadpole transport.
Size of Frog
Adults are 0.75–1 inch (2–2.5 cm).
Life Span
8–12 years in captivity when properly cared for.
Feeding
Main diet: flightless fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster and D. hydei).
Supplements: springtails, isopods, pinhead crickets.
Feed daily and dust prey with calcium/vitamins 2–3 times weekly.
Color/Pattern
Bright red to orange body with contrasting deep blue or black hind legs.
The “strawberry” and “jeans” pattern makes this one of the most iconic and recognizable dart frog morphs.
Social Behavior
Territorial, especially males who establish and defend calling spots.
Females may show aggression toward one another in smaller enclosures.
Best kept as pairs or small groups (with ample space and sight breaks).
How to Determine Sex
Males: slightly smaller, slimmer, and produce a soft trill call.
Females: larger, rounder bodies, especially noticeable when carrying eggs.
How to Breed
Provide smooth, moist surfaces such as film canisters, broad leaves, or petri dishes for egg deposition.
Males call to attract females, fertilize eggs externally.
Females transport hatched tadpoles to bromeliads or small water pools.
Tadpoles are fed by the female with unfertilized eggs until metamorphosis, a unique behavior among dart frogs.

Other Names (How it Got Its Names)
Common names: Bicolor Poison Dart Frog, Black-Legged Poison Dart Frog.
Phyllobates means “leaf climber,” reflecting their arboreal tendencies.
“Bicolor” refers to their two-tone coloration: a bold golden-orange to yellow body contrasted with darker legs.
Characteristics
Large, robust dart frog species.
One of the more toxic dart frogs in the wild (like its relative, P. terribilis), though captive-bred frogs are non-toxic.
Known for being bold and fairly active in captivity.
Recommended Vivarium Size
Minimum: 18” x 18” x 18” for a pair or trio.
Larger enclosures (24” x 18” x 18” or bigger) are recommended for groups due to their size and activity.
Provide dense ground cover, live plants, leaf litter, and some vertical climbing options.
Temperature
Daytime: 72–78°F (22–25°C).
Nighttime: 68–72°F (20–22°C).
Avoid exposure above 80°F.
Humidity
70–90%, maintained with regular misting.
Provide damp hiding spots and good ventilation.
Size of Frog
Adults reach 1.5–2.5 inches (4–6.5 cm).
Larger than many dart frog species.
Life Span
10–15 years in captivity with proper care.
Feeding
Diet: fruit flies (D. melanogaster and D. hydei), pinhead crickets, springtails, and isopods.
Feed daily; dust prey with calcium and multivitamins regularly.
Color/Pattern
Golden-yellow to orange body coloration, with contrasting black or dark-colored legs.
Some individuals show partial greenish hues.
Pattern is usually solid without spots or bands, giving them a bold, clean look.
Social Behavior
More tolerant of group housing than many dart frogs, especially in larger enclosures.
Males call with a soft buzzing trill but are generally not aggressive.
Active and bold — often visible during the day.
How to Determine Sex
Males: smaller, slimmer, with toe pads adapted for calling; produce advertisement calls.
Females: larger and rounder, especially when gravid.
How to Breed
Provide smooth laying surfaces (petri dishes, film canisters, broad leaves).
Males call to attract females; eggs are laid on moist surfaces.
Eggs hatch in ~10–14 days; tadpoles should be collected and raised in aquatic setups.
Tadpoles metamorphose into froglets in 2–3 months depending on diet and care.
⭐ Phyllobates bicolor is valued as a larger dart frog with bold coloration, great visibility, and hardy care requirements — often considered a good “step up” species for keepers who want something impressive but not as delicate as rarer morphs.
