    Please help me with my 3 ADFs!

    Yesterday I decided to purchase 3 ADFs to eventually add to my 10 gallon which currently only has my male plakat betta. I've had ADFs before so I know their general care. After I got them home I...

    I think my Western Toad is a male?

    I have a Western Toad (Bufo boreas) who is about 4 inches long. When I first caught him he made a chirping noise that sounded just like a dog's squeak toy. Sometimes during the night he makes a short...

    Re: Can I feed my toad "Super Worms?"

    I have thought of another feeding question to ask you guys, so I though I would tack it onto the last one and hopefully someone will take a look and maybe have an answer :)

    Re: Newbie: set-up for adult Western Toad?
