My Fire Bellied Toads are callng for the first time and im not really to sure what to do!

Im not completely sure of they are a pair or not...

How will i know if "courtship" is taking place?
Do i need to create a special breeding place where they can lay eggs?

Any info is good!

You should see amplexus at some point but 2 males will do this as well lol pure frustration nothing else Wink

they will lay eggs in the water section I believe but I'm not to sure on FBT's so might be best to wait for some one who knows a bit more to come along.
