I own 5 fire bellied toads. Help?

Question

When I bought them they were all green, and now they are all a very ugly dark brown color. They are healthy as far as I know and they eat whenever they get a chance. Why did they turn brown? Has this happened to you before?

Answer 1

I have two and they were both green in the begining and now one is bright green and the other is darker.  I was told that feeding them crickets that have just eaten carrots helps and sometimes if they are upset they get darker in color, like if they don't have enough places to hide.  

Answer 2

im pretty sure they are fine, sometimes they will just be browner than others and can go the other way, the only reason no one askes if thats a problem is because green isn't an ugly color

Answer 3

That is normal. I kept going to our pet store every week and they were all green fire-belly toads and then 1 turned brown. I asked if it was normal and they said yes. It happends all the time. I have 2 fire-belly toads and 1 is turning a brownish color. It is not a pretty color but.

Answer 4

i did own one, and no it never turned brown

Answer 5

This is perfectly normal.  I had the same group of 3 fire bellied toads for almost 10 years!! and one was brown and they all lived healthy lives
