Hi! I have three fire bellied toads (Wink, frisky and spike) and I am going to try to plan to breed them sometime soon. But first, I need to figure out their genders. I know that it has something to do with toe webbing and other things, but I still wasn't quite sure if my judgement is right or not and I wanted to see the input from the more experienced people on this forum. I tried my best to get shots of their feet! Here are some pictures of my frogs! Please help identify their genders!!!
Wink: (I have seen him go into amplexus on top of Spike)
Frisky: (This one goes in amplexus on top of spike also)
Spike: (I think this ones the female, but not quite sure, she is quite fat)
Thanks for your help!
im sorry, i dont know the sexes.... the only reason i know the sex of mine, is that one croaks and lol amplexus the other.
but, does wink only have one eye? very suiting name!
Yes, He only has one eye, I got him like that from the Pet store. It doesn't seem to bother him, He is still really good at catching as much crickets as all the others!
thank you!
looks like the last one is also male judging by the thick forelegs
You have some beautiful frogs. Amazing colour. And Wink is adorable. Great name I wish my frogs were as vibrant. I would love to see your setup.
Here are some pictures of my setup. It isn't anything special, just a simple tank.
I know that pebbles are harmful for the frogs but I have them for three years and everything has been fine so far.
My dad says they have too much water right now.. i don't know if this is true?
If Frisky and Wink are trying to get into amplexus with Spike, they're probably males, whilst Spike is a female. A croak will confirm it.
I'm no expert on FBT's, but I think that's a good amount of water. More could actually be nice for them.
My juvenile bullfrog has a very small land space, and only 2 small areas to be dry, but she rarely even goes on those. So I think you've got plenty of land area.
Oh, and that's a great setup
My Amphibians:
1.0.0 Rana Catesbiana (Bumpy Digtoad )
1.0.0 Pseudacris Regilla (Levi )
1.1.0 Ambystoma Macrodactylum (Urtham and Gargan )
2.2.0 Bombina Orientalis ( Rosa, Sasha, Aleksis, and Dimitri )
Rest in Peace, Gnag the Nameless, Chrome, and Thermidor
Your tank looks really nice!
im pretty sure, that even if she is female... she can basically be telling them... to back off!
or...lol she could actually be male... and telling the other males.. hey look buddy, you've made a mistake. im a boy too!
hopefully someone else with more experience, can confirm this?
Yeah, if you hear a trilling noise as opposed to barking, its a "release call" set off by either sex. FBT constantly mount, whether or not the other is female. At first I thought I had a male and female, because one was constantly mounting, but he is just more dominant because I have seen the other mount also. Both are always barking.
