A certain firebelly wanted.

I'm looking for some one who works with Bombina bombina. Interesting colors. This is one I'd like to work with for some reason. Is there anyone working with them?

[Christine Funalde]

I've only ever had the bombina oreantalis or however you spell that! lol! But there really awsome to own!

[Rocko]

I think user Han might have some experience in addition to the maxima toads I've seen from him already, although he is over in Europe.

[michael novy]

Lol.. Orientalis..Of all the frogs that I have and have had.. I've never had any of the bombina's.. Figure it would be something different.

Han? Figures they have all the cool stuuf over in Europe..Guess I'll have to see if he has them and if he can export them.. I know.. A firebelly? really? I'm strange like that.

Fire-bellies are cool. I have three bright green ones.

Took care of Bombina bombina many years ago. It's not allowed anymore to keep
the species in the Netherlands (and many other European countries).
Lots of breeders in Germany though.
Nevertheless, some pics by some Mid-European photographers, lucky enough
to live just around the corner of this lovely amphibian.
The variegata x bombina hybrids appear to be rather common in the European
region where their natural habitats meet.

I had one awhile back, probably came in through CalZoo I would think. So I guess they do come in, who knows what happens to them? Neat little frogs! And mine had a little blue on the belly I think, pretty cool!

B. variegata is cool too, really have a "clump of mud" look to them, hard to describe. JVK

Ya. as simple as a lot of people think of firebelly toads, they are awesome looking animal. Just curious if anyone knows if they are protected in that part of asia?

[Han]

Asia? Bombina bombina inhabits Central-European lowlands, Bombina v.
variegata the western regions.
Bombina maxima, Bombina lichuanensis, Bombina fortinuptialis and
Bombina microdeladigitora: Asia- China (south-west), parts of Vietnam and
Laos. Bombina orientalis: China (north-east), Korea, Russia (south-east).

Michael: Hello, I live in the Czech Republic and bombina bombina and bombina variegata are both protected by law there and there are only orientalis in the shops. But maybe you could find some over the internet.

BTW...do you have Czech ancestors? Because your name sounds very Czech...

No. I'm Irish, Italian and American Indian. Ya, I know.. Those marriages lasted..lol..It was one way my grandparents hid the fact they were Irish or Italian back in the day.Especially if you were indian as well.. You couldn't get any work otherwise.

Thank you for your answer. Yes, Czech language is VERY similar to Slovak (Polish is a bit different, but people who live near borders with Poland speak or at least understand Polish, especially the older generations). And we have a lot of dialects there, the language is different in Prague, different in Brno or in Ostrava (3 biggest cities).

Yes, your last name means "new" in Czech (the right form is "Nový" with coma above the "y")

And what´s "gingkuya"

[michael novy]

Means thank you. I probably murdered the spelling..lol..Sorry.

[Quetzacoatl]

Means thank you. I probably murdered the spelling..lol..Sorry.
