He's about 6 months old, so he's still a baby really he's got loads more to grow (he's double the size of the container in the first pick now (put it to one side to see how much he's grown... but can't find it at the moment, I will take some more pics when I find it)

I missed going to York Rep Night GP - Wish I had have gone, I wouldn't have had that killer hangover on Monday morning if we did.

About the size of a side plate, about 10-14cm, maybe larger if he turns out to be a female

Just the one at the moment - But they are so easy to keep I want a few different types. I'm after an ornate and a fantasy horned frog to add to the collection.

Breeding is apparently quite hard, in the past they have been forced with hormones to encourage breeding. Pollywog (one of the biggest UK breeders) had success without hormones which is where The Mighty Alberto came from.

I've got cliff and Richard who are very entertaining square marked toads, they're being a bit strange at the moment so might see some tadpoles hopefully from them

I'm ok now- I killed the cold with a diet made up entirely of jalepeanos, onions, raw garlic and chicken soup. The virus didn't stand a chance
