Please help identify my toad.

Hello.

I received a toad as a present. The toad seems to come from England, UK. I have uploaded some pictures, you can see them when you click on the link: Flickr: lilbird1981's Photostream

As I wasn't sure whether the toad was aquatic or not, I set up a vivarium with a water tank as well. As substrate I used soil from my garden and leaves and bark as they contain a lot of insects already. Do you think this is a good idea?

I would be happy if someone could help identify my toads, and let me know some details about how to care for it.
Thanks in advance!
Jenny.

It's not a toad, it's a Common Frog, Rana temporaria. They require the same conditions as North American Leopard Frogs and there are several discussions on keeping those in the "Frogs" area of this forum.

Thank you very much! I will have a look in this section of the forum!
