I am currently interested in getting a few dart frogs and I have done a bit of research, but noone seems to mention anything about eggs or tadpoles. I would just like to know what the care consists of and how hard it may be? Thanks, Brian!

Patrick at Saurian has some care sheets on raising tadpoles. You could also chose one of the thumbnails such as the imitator group that do it themselves if you have some bromeliads that hold water in their vases and leaf axils. This is a lot of fun to watch. Pumilios also raise their own tads, as they are obligatory egg feeders, but they are a bit expensive and more difficult to keep over-all, so aren't usually recommended for a beginning hobbyist.
