Just put them in something that has enough water to cover them and a place for them to climb onto land like with pebbles or something. Then you can move them into a tank. I don't know how long it takes but if they have all 4 legs it probaly a week or less.

Well you should be always feeding the toad. I'm not sure what you mean actually.
