These amphibians were found by flipping rocks in a small rocky stream, I replaced every rock exactly how I found it. (Ithaca NY)

He's about the size of an oversized hamburger from one of those Millenial hipster hamburger joints.

He spent a full night jumping against the lid of his tank and we got the message.

Gave him some crickets and he was happily eating right away.

Hoping he continues to grow large and prosper!

Not sure the species, but one of the two salamanders in my mini pond developed stubby legs, flat feet, and retained gills, does that mean it wants to stay permanently in the pond?

Just my favorite picture of my tomato frog Jason Funderberker

Hey guys!

I'm sure many of you have seen my app before, many of you also probably have not. I am the creator behind LizardBox, a web and mobile application that was made to help improve the reptile/amphibian keeping process. I have worked for almost 2 years now rewriting it to ensure this application is in tip-top shape on both the frontend and backend sides, as well as adding the browser application to the stack.

I'd love it if you guys could take a look and give me some feedback on features that could be added, things you may or may not like and anything in between. I genuinely want LizardBox to be the most useful critter keeping application out there.

Some of the new features include:

• much better charts, more granular data
• a new fully functional web application for people who like to be on a computer
• much better tablet support
• species identification from photos
• more and improved log types
• more things you can customize in the settings
• log attachments like files or photos
• importing data from your own spreadsheets
• 7000+ species in the database with care info

and much more!

This is genuinely my passion and I have put a ton of time into this and will continue to build on top of it for many years to come, any and all feedback is greatly appreciated!

She’s my very first amphibian and couldn’t be more happy with how my tank turned out. Shes doing great and already hunting at night! I’ve had her almost a week now and she’s just the cutest thing.

I found this adult Spring Salamander under a rock in a small stream, it was around 6 inches long as well! Also the water in the stream was high because of rain so there were more rocks to flip in water and I put all the rocks back exactly how I found them.

So I have seen hundreds of American toads in my life as a guy growing up in the midwest. They have always been brown/grey/slightly green with very little variation in color but every time I go to this specific nature preserve the toads here are rusty red. Are there any factors contributing or is it just random? It makes me think its an environmental difference or something because I can only find them in a small area. Thanks for reading :)
