I have recently seen advertised a giant form of Bombina Orientalis. Not Maxima. The giant Bombinas are apparently identical to the standard Korean Fire Bellied Toads. Is this giant form a hybrid? I have never heard of a giant FBT before? Anyone know anything about the giants please. _________________ www.rickslivefood.co.uk

Hi Rick...
I've seen these at a reptile shop not too far from me; where I got my YBTs from. They are simply very large oriental FBTs... Here's my posting about them on Andy's forum...

HI Tim
Read the thread, thanks for that. They must just be a larger varient of the bog standard FBT. _________________ www.rickslivefood.co.uk
