  3. If you are going to keep them I highly recommend this: Get some dirt and keep it moist, get some humidity moss from your local pet shop for them to bury under, get something for the toad to hide under, get a water bowl which you change every other day. The toad should be fed 4 or five crickets every other day. Keep the70-80 degrees Fahrenheit.  temperature between For more information browse through my website: BrettsToad.GooglePages.com It is about a fire-bellied toad but the information should still help you, Especially the product section.

  4. oh COOL! I've kept millions of these things as pets haha. What I did was I had just a 10 gallon aquarium filled with this "coconut" bedding stuff. It was similar to dirt. Just normal dirt should be fine, as long as it's changed every once in a while. Also, I got a pool with a sloped entranceway to put water in (it filled up the whole side of the tank). the dirt got muddy, but not to the point where it was like quicksand or anything. I also got a cute little coconut house for the toad to hide in! my toads lived the ultimate toad life... till i let them all go!

  5. set him free:D

    go buy a cool captive bred toad.

    wild caught animals do terrible in domesticated environments..

    you'll just stress him out, and he'll die a very early death...


  6. Just put some dirt in there and some rocks and leaves and stuff for them to get under.

  7. get some peat moss, and fill the tank with a little bit of water, and a dry area, for the frog to get in and out of the water when needed.

  8. first of all put it back wild caugh toads dont do well in captivity. they suffer from stress (which can kill) diease caused by a lowered imune system (which is caused by being in captivity and can kill) those that survive have stress realated behavior disorders often get sick have a shorted life expectance and never settle down or have a good quality of life.

    u want a pet toad get a captured bred on from a reputable pet store AFTER you've done the correct research about how to keep it

    here's some basic info on keeping frogs and toads http://exoticpets.about.com/cs/frogsandt...
