They spend their days in the wild buried up to their eyes so that they can avoid the exact situation you're putting them in (out in the bright sun with no cover).
    lol they have a covered porch for the outdoor tank and they perked right up listening to the native frogs outside ,they even mated being outside , in the daytime they burrowed at night they came out .I live in the country not the city you can drink the rainwater here .

    You probably don't drink the rainwater off the ground... Runoff can come from anywhere. Mating doesn't mean they're happy; it means they've had enough of a 'shock' to make them think the seasons have changed and it's time to breed. And that still doesn't change the fact that they should not be kept outside. You can't monitor their surroundings, heat, and humidity enough (if you're in Illinois, I'm willing to bet you don't have 80% humidity outside all day long; I'm in the South, and that rarely happens here). Frankly, you're taking risks with your pets' health that don't need to be taken, and telling you otherwise doesn't seem to get the point across.
