I don't know anything about them sorry. But I thought I might offer a little tidbit of advice. First of all look up information about their natural habitat. What time of year they breed and what the temperatures are. You may be able to breed them naturally if your weather and season fit the bill in your area.
I've been able to breed my native American toads, Wood frogs, and Yellow Spotted Salamanders. Just by cooling them during the winter and then putting them outside at night during their breeding season. They did the rest themselves.
Thanks for that, good tip. My only worry with that is there found in arid areas and much warmer climate that here in the uk but then again the temp would drop over there and we do get warm summers sometime so I can not rule out it working. What cooling methods do you use?
