European Green Toad
Place of Origin and Range | The European green toad or Egyptian green toad is a species of toad found in mainland Europe, and Egypt. |
Description | European Green toads will change their colour in response to heat and light changes, but to a greater degree than others. |
Adult Size | Can grow to 2.5 - 4 in ( 6-10 cm ) |
Accommodation | A semi-aquatic terrarium or filtered aquarium. The latter should have planted and floating plants and a floating piece of driftwood or a plastic lily pad to allow the frogs complete emergence from the water. A steady warm temperature of 25 C or 77 F in a basking spot. No water heater. |
Lifespan | Can live 10+ years |
Feeding / Diet | These toads eat insects and worms, but will learn to accept pieces of floating Koi chow. Dust insects with a calcium D3 supplement before feeding once a week. |
Breeding | When hatched the tadpoles are recognizable by their skinny tails in relation to the size of their black bodies. They may advance to adulthood in 50-65 days. When metamorphosis is completed, the "toad-lets" may stay in the water for a short period of time before they become mostly land based. Studies have shown that they have a mutualistic relationship with Chlorogonium algae, which makes tadpoles develop faster than normal. |
