Hi AnimalMaster,
First you need to make sure you have male and female toads. Do you know? And how many of each gender do you have? It is easier if you have more than one of each. If you are not sure what gender your toads are go here: http://www.fbtoads.com/index.php?option=… (There are pictures)
Breeding these toads can be time consuming. You need to make sure your toads are a good weight and healthy before you go through this process as underweigt toads could die (they don't eat much during this time).
With that said, you need to go from an artificial winter to an artificial spring. They need to go through a type of hibernation (winter) and then after the season changes to spring, that is their key to breed. Creating an artificial winter is probably the most difficult part of getting them to breed. The temperature in the tank needs to be in the low 60s (remember to not let temperatures drop in the 50s!). If you live in a cold area, try relocating your tank into the garage or put it on the floor.
Then after about 8-9 weeks, you need to raise the temperature in your tank back to normal to imitate spring (coming out of winter and into spring).
Breeding is much more complex than what I have mentioned above.

Have been keeping FBTs for years. I have, however, not had the time to attempt to breed them. Good luck!
