Really nice pictures everyone. That extremely dark FBT looks great eelnoob. Speaking of amphibians, didn't I just see that you snagged Rosies male Pyxie off of frogfreaks?

If so, he went to a great home man.

This morning I looked in on the firebelly toads and one was clenching the other...... yeah. lol. They're having too much fun in there I guess. Doubt I'll see any spawning, but it's interesting to see mating behavior

Not might not be too long from now. I have seen some very light colored FBT that are very close to yellow.

Really nice pictures everyone. That extremely dark FBT looks great eelnoob. Speaking of amphibians, didn't I just see that you snagged Rosies male Pyxie off of frogfreaks?

Thanks


Not yet I can't afford it right now. I have seen pictures of him and he is pretty amazing. Hoping to be able to go over to see it in person this weekend.

I'm guessing they need at least a month of cooling to produce any eggs.



I want to get more pictures of my Southern toad but he's always either digged in or hops to the back whenever I'm near the tank.

I plan on taking a trip to a secret spot of mine here in MS. and obtaining some Gulf Coast toads for photographs and a small one for the terrarium

More photos coming soon!

When I opened this thread, I just kept "awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!"-ing, I couldn't stop Nothing cuter than either a western or american toad, except MAYBE a nasuta frog (which I must someday keep and breed, as they remind me of owls which are rather significant to me). My first reptilian pet was a wild western toad from the sierra-nevada foothills, who we fork-fed mealworms.

Bufo marinus


About 6 inches long and every bit of heavy bodied.

I just recently caught wind of the name change on the Marine toad (Bufo marinus) to its new classification as Rhinella marina.


Any thoughts on this?
It, ofcourse, hasn't been commercially accepted by some Herpetoligists. (or so I've read)

 

[hermitman64]

Great pictures, everybody! I love toads.

I have a Bufo woodhousii that I've had for about 5 years now.

I didn't realize Bufo marinus had been reclassified. I wonder why?

That's not a boring home. That's really nice.

I would love some bufo alvarius if they didn't cost $150-200/specimen in canada... and that's if you can source one. The last time I personally saw one available in Canada was 2 years ago....

$150-200?
whoa i need to catch some and get up north.

That's not a boring home. That's really nice.

thank you

I personally like the cane toads, though they eat more than any other animal I own! They are beasts

 

[pede2]

love the southern toad.

This inspires me!!!! but I don't think I'll be able to that good! but I definatly want to improve my boring fire belly toads home. I've got 4 and they were from some one who didn't want them anymore. I havn't payed any attention to them (don't worry I feed them and maintain cleanlyness) but I think I wanna re-design their enclosure into somthing really livley and GREEN! What is all that "carpet" stuff? And are you using like a potting soil for that substrate?

 

[wayne the pain]

Here's a couple of my cane toads, really would like to get some Roccoco toads though.
