    Hello everyone

    Besides the fact that I think frogs are fascinating and beautiful creatures, I recently found a toad in an box of aquarium plants I ordered from Durban. I guess he/she hopped in when no one was looking ! So here I am, to read and learn and see what you all do/keep and hopefully someone can help me identify this toad !!

    Welcome! What a cute toad. I'm not sure what kind he is but I'm sure someone here can help.

    Welcome to the forums! Wish I was more familiar with toads so I could help you identify the species. Hopefully some of the toad owners on here will catch this thread and be able to help you out.

    Nice looking toad. Welcome to Frog Forum. Maybe one of our members from South Africa will be able to identify it.

    I've been advised it may be a Guttural Toad, a highly invasive species. So have made "Lily" an enclosure with moist peat and a hide pot. I hope to gain some extra information off this forum for caring for this critter properly. Thank you everyone for the replies !
