    Default 4 new FBT-have a few ?

    So I got 4 FBT, mail ordered from my feed supplier (crickets,mice,substrate,ect.) I don't like to do it that way as I cant pick them out myself but never really had a problem b4 so i figured it be ok. I have them set up in a 25G long tank split 50/50 water/land. So i noticed one at first, then when I took there pic it was two, of them are fatties. I'm not to worried but I know that they shouldn't be bloated. So I just asking for FBT keeper opinion on this, is there something wrong with them or could they just be fat, or could they(especially the dark one) be gravid females? Thanks for any help you can give.Name:  056.jpg

    I recently had to put my toads into a white bucket while I was building them a new habitat, much like in your pictures, and I noticed that they were all pretty fat. I'd say about halfway between the bottom green frog and the brown frog in your second picture. However, they all seem to have pretty good appetites and all poop regularly (too much for my liking :P). I wouldn't worry about it too much for the time being. Just watch them and see how they behave over the next week or so. Apparently you can put them in some warm water with a little bit of honey to help them poop if you think they are impacted. Sorry for not answering your question better!

    Keep us posted.

    Ronin that's not fair, some of us do sleep... I think that your guys look great. The one is a little bigger and plumper, but doesn't look stressed. How long have you had them and have you fed them yet? I got mine from LLL reptile shipped from California to Montana and everyone arrived happy and healthy. I'd just keep an eye on them, but they look fine in the photos.

    Hahahaha I knew that response would generate more response. Anyway they are all active and healthy. Ive had them now for about 2 weeks. When i feed last I saw all but one eat, he/she was asleep but the next day they all had plump bellies so I amusing there all ok. Ive been keeping an close eye on the hefty ones, especially the darker one but so far so good. Thanks for all the response guys/girls. I'll keep you updated.
