Thanks for the help. I'll get working on some new terrain for him. Is outdoor dirt ok since he's a wild toad or does it need to be bought?
I've been taking him out and putting him in a half gallon fish bowl at feeding time. I do this for several reasons. 1). To make sure he's eating. 2). To make sure he can see the food because I agree with you, there's WAY too many places for flies to hide in the 10, and 3). I was hoping it would help him get used to being handled. Is it ok to do this? I looked at is as a little bit of bonding.
Like I said, going by the orange arrangement on his back, I'm pretty sure he's a fowler's toad, but with all this "he" talk, is there anyway to determine their sex? I realize it may still be to early for that. Thanks again! Much appreciated!
