Keeping:

As for Bufo americanus.


Breeding:

As for Bufo americanus.

The Fowlers are alot like the American toads for breeding, only the fowlers of course have a different call (almost like an eerie screem in the night! Or, kind of like the bleet of a sheep.)

The fowlers also begin calling much later than the American toads, usually late into June. Here it is July and I could probably find some calling at night still!


Remark:
Leo succeeded in breeding Bufo woodhousii fowleri in spring/summer 2002.
