    Default Red Toad Identification

    I have had a red toad for a year now and still am unsure of what she/he is. It was found in southern Ohio. I can take more photos if needed. I think it is a bufo americanus but want to be sure so I can breed it. (Her I think.) He lives with a green tree frog. They don't bother each other but I think the toad is picking up on the tree frog techniques.

    Default Red Toad Identification

    First things first, and this is a big thing newcomers seem to do, and I made this mistake at first too; please, don't mix frog species. A toad should have it's own tank, and the tree frog should have it's own. But all that aside for right now, I do believe your right, it is probably and eastern american toad. (Bufo bufo americanus)

    He's just in there because I'm moving. Only want one tank to deal with. He has his own ten gallon.
