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?

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?

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...

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"
