Can turtles and Fire bellied Toad live together?

I have a terrarium with two red eared sliders, and 2 fire bellied toads along with many fish and other aquatic animals. I was wondering the same question. I have had mine living in a 100 gallon tank with my turtles for about a month now and they seem to get along. In fact, today the frogs were hanging onto the shell of my turtle enjoying a nice little ride. As far as I can tell, as long as there is plenty of food in your tank for the turtles to eat and not think of your frogs as prey they should be fine, but like I said I'm not sure.

Can you keep fire belly toads with fire bellied newts together?

blah balhh all right, you should not put a toad and a newt together just because they are both fire bellies they might fight all the time and the newt does not secrete as much as toxins as the toad does and also the newt is much stronger so he will kill your toad and maybe eat him and there are a lot more reasons to. I'm sorry to say so but it is a terrible idea to do that. Hope that answered your question. Bye.

I disagree with the previous poster. I kept 2 firebelly toads and a firebelly newt together in the same cage for years and they were fine. As long as they are about the same size, I can't imagine there is any way the newt will attempt to eat the frog.

I agree with the second answer. I have seen people with FBT and FBN together

Yes, fire-belly newts can live alone, but they are social animals and may benefit from the presence of other newts. Keeping them in pairs or small groups can promote natural behaviors and reduce stress. However, it's important to ensure that there is enough space and resources in the habitat to prevent territorial disputes. If kept alone, they should have plenty of environmental enrichment to keep them stimulated.

How are fire bellied toads told apart from boys and girls?

You do not tell them apart like other animals.... There are different ways to tell. You have to look out for all of the signs. It will not be possible if you don't have more than two toads. I have 5 and I will be getting 1 or 2 more tomorrow. Okay, well here's what you do. First look at their front legs. Toads with thin front legs are girls; toads with thick legs are boys. Now you have to put on Latex gloves.(touching toads can poison you and the toads, trust me, toad poison burns) Grab one of your toad's hind legs (gently!) and spread out its feet. You have to look at the webbing. (the webbed feet they have for swimming) If the webbing goes all the way or most of the way up the toys it is a boy. If the webbing goes half way or less up the toes, it is a girl. Any toads that you hear making noises are definetly boys. I can't describe the noise, because each male toad has his own call(each of mine have 3). If any of your toads are mating(they look like one is hugging the other) the male is the one on top. Put all these clues together. You need all of them to tell.

Can crabs and fire belly toads live together?

Crabs and fire-belly toads should not be kept together, as their habitat and care requirements differ significantly. Crabs typically require brackish or saltwater environments, while fire-belly toads thrive in moist, terrestrial habitats. Additionally, crabs may pose a threat to the toads due to their aggressive behavior and pincers, which could harm the toads. It's best to house them separately to ensure the well-being of both species.

Can a fire belly newt live with a Betta?

Please do not attempt to mix amphibians with fish. It can not, and will not be successfull. They require totally different temperature ranges to live in and the newt will poison the water for the Betta. The basic rules of sucessfull fishkeeping are. :- 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water.(a Betta needs at least 3 gallons heated to around 78F) :- Every tank must have a permanently running 'cycled' filter. :- Every tank needs at least 50% of its water replaced every week. Follow the above and your fish will stand a chance of survival. Fail to follow them and I can guarantee that your fish will be constantly getting sick and will live a shortened lifespan.

How can you tell if a fire belly newt is a boy or a girl?

Obviously there is the functional differences between males and females. The male provides the sperm and the female provides the eggs and when combined they eggs are fertilized and, hopefully, grow into tadpoles. The female American Bullfrog is said to produce up to 20,000 eggs. Females bullfrogs are typically larger than males. Males have a external ear drum called a tympanum that is about twice the diameter of the eye. Female tympanum diameter is about the same size as that of the eye.
