    Default Re: How do I care for a big bunch of Canes?

    I don't see raising enough feeders to be a viable option for 10 cane toads to be honest. They eat like pigs. It probally would be worth the $18-20 bucks a month to drop on a box of 1000 super worms at some reptile show or online rather then try to raise a truck bed sized farm of earth worms. Use earth worms, pinky mice and dubia as treats. Dubia and earthworms take to long to grow to a size to make them be worth it. I gut load my superworms with organic chicken/fish based cat food and dust them.

    I would agree with the 20 gallons per toad. I had two cane toads before in a 40 gallon breeder and even that became to small once they grew. Right now I have them in a large hexagon tank (the kind they keep ferrets in at pet stores) and they still can leap the tank in two bounds. You want a low tank as opposed to something deep so they have the option to move around. With ten toads your going to need about 5-6 hides, which also takes up space.. and a LARGE water source, unless you plan to change out the water source a couple of times a day (and that's just two toads). They poop ALOT if feed properly. Mine like to relive themselves in water and I find myself changing it out daily to keep it safe for them to sit in.
