Mordachi and thing 2

Wicked frogs! ...but what happened to Thing 1?

Your frogs looked awesome. I'm sure they lived great lives.

Awwww, sad face. Are they frogs or fire belly toads? They're awesome looking though. I'm sorry you lost them.

Wyatt, fire belly toads are incorrectly named. They're actually frogs. I think their bumpy skin makes them look more
like a toad than a frog, so people just assumed they were toads, thus the name. I hope to get some once my cricket
colony is established.

Thing 1 turned out to be definitely male, so he was renamed to Mordachi by my daughter lol.........we never did determine Thing 2's sex so........she/he just stayed a Thing

Wyatt - the common name is Firebelly Toad and the scientific name is Bombina Orientalis. They are a semi aquatic species.

Shebeen is correct. The firebelly toad is not classified as a bufonidae so can be referred to properly as a frog.

Thanks guys...........I was just missing them. They used to give me hours of entertainment I actually cried when each of them passed (I'm such a wuss LOL)

I stand corrected. Thanks bro! That makes sense actually, I apologize. I used to have a fire belly frog and a fire belly newt. They're awesome little critters.

Anna, I'm sure I'll feel the same way when my African dwarf frogs pass away. In spite of being pretty
much blind and extremely stupid, they're the most entertaining pets I've had. It's surprising how
attached we can get to these little buggers.

Wyatt, no need to apologize. Before I started reading up on them, I thought they were toads as well.

RIP little dudes

my sister has fire belly toads and newts there cool cute little critters she gets mega upset when she looses one
shes also babysitting some tiny mantids which are gorgeous and made me want some lol

I think we get upset cuz in the herp world, they are kinda the "fluffy" pet LOL......all cute & squishy................it's easy to love them

I think the newts are cool too, just never had any...................
