Bufo melanostictus

[Diogo Juliao]

Hello everybody

So, I just bought a Bufo melanostictus.. I was going to buy 2 of them, but then I feel in love with a pyxie... so I bought one of each.

I had to pick between a medium one with lots of red and a huge one super fat... I pick the smaller one with an amazing red colouration.

He's (I believe he's a male) feeding on zoophobas just fine! The only reason he's not fatter is because the huge "room mate" used to steal him the majority of his food.

Pictures coming in a few hours

I think you made the right choice! I also picked the smaller one because of its awesome coloration. I think my Bufo is a male. Generally in the toad world, males are smaller and more colorful than females.

I will be posing pictures on mine very soon.

Well, here you have the coolest "little" red guy on earth

On his favourite hide:



(sorry about the misted glass ont his one)



His enclosure:



And what made me fell in love with him:



I'm probably going to move him to a plastic box until I buy him a partner, because I'm needing this aquarium and with only one bufo it seems a little empty

Enjoy

ps: He's eating zoophobas like if there was no tomorow

Amazing colouring on him-I can definitely see why you picked him! Congrats again on getting him and I hope we can continue to see lots more pictures of him and all his friends.
