A quick question after browing this site.
I know those dart frogs are beautiful, but how do you keep them and handle them? Can't you die just from accidentally touching one?

Perhaps I just answered my own question. I just read on a site that these guys derive their poison from something in the wild and that captive bred dart frogs are completely non-toxic. Is this completely true?

Yes, they are non-poisonous in captivity. Now, if you get a wild caught one, it would take quite a while to make it non-poisonous, I guess. I don't handle my frogs unless one escapes (only had one escape that I saw), as the stuff on my hands is not good for them.
