Species, source, and vet records for the dart frog
A dart frog's paperwork carries more identification detail than most amphibian files. Keep the breeder or supplier record that names the exact species and morph, the date obtained, and any locality information, and update it with your new address so the provenance chain stays intact. Dart frogs are small, delicate, and easily confused with close relatives, so a clear photograph belongs in the file beside the written description. Transfer the vet record from any exotics practice that has seen the frog, and register with a vet near the new home who treats amphibians, noting on the form that this frog absorbs substances through the skin and needs chemical-free handling at every visit.
Water, misting, and chemical notes for the new home
A dart frog's new address changes the water that keeps him alive, and the paperwork should say so. Record how the new household's tap water is treated before it reaches the misting system and water area, and where the treatment supplies are stored. Note the misting schedule that holds humidity in the vivarium's new room, which may be drier or warmer than the old one, and log the first week's humidity readings so the routine is based on measurement rather than habit. Add a written warning for cleaners, landlords, and pest-control visits: no sprays or treatments near the vivarium, ever, because residues harmless to people can be absorbed by a dart frog through the skin.
Live-food records and supply changes after the move
A dart frog eats live food cultured at home, and a move disrupts that supply line. Update your notes on the fruit fly cultures and other micro-prey: which cultures are producing, when each was started, and where they are kept in the new house. Record the nearest supplier for replacement cultures and supplements in the new area, since a crashed culture during moving week leaves a tiny frog with nothing suitably sized to eat. Note the dusting routine for the prey on the feeding sheet, in the order it is actually done, so a sitter maintaining the cultures while you unpack does not guess at the schedule or skip the supplements.
Sitter and emergency sheets rewritten for a fragile frog
A dart frog's sitter sheet needs rewriting around fragility rather than feeding alone. State that the frog is never handled with dry or lotioned hands, that the vivarium lid stays closed against both escape and drying air, and that a found frog outside the enclosure is guided into a damp, ventilated container, never chased or grabbed. Emergency contacts get the new address, the amphibian vet's number, and instructions for a power cut: keep the enclosure closed and humid, and do not move the frog to a bright or warm spare room. Name a backup person who understands live-food cultures, because misting alone will not carry this frog through a long absence.
Filing the dart frog's small but vital set
A dart frog generates little paper, yet every page protects an animal with almost no margin for error. Keep the species and source record, vet transfer, water-treatment note, and culture log together, and review them after the first month in the new home, when the humidity routine and supply routes have proven themselves. Photograph the planted vivarium as settled, for insurance and for rebuilding the layout if it is ever disturbed. Storing that set in your KinsLe Pet Passport keeps the dart frog's identification, contacts, and care instructions in one portable packet ready for any vet visit or sitter handover.
