    Thanks for the responses guys! I really appreciate the help. Sorry I could not thank you guys earlier but had some things I needed to take care off. Anyways, Im here with a little update. I took the advice given by you guys and got my little toad a buddy. But he still acts the same. Always staying in the water, so I just leave him be. My guess is that that is just probably how he is, since the new one I got does not even touch the water, he just hides in the little cave. Anyways, yesterday I tried to feed the toads, and the one that did not want to eat finally ate! He ate four medium sized crickets! I was super happy he actually ate. So yeah, they seem to be fine, I guess it was just probably just a bit stressed from the move. Anyways, how often should I feed them and how many crickets each? Is it possible to over feed them, like will they stop eating once they're full or will they continue eating if there is food available? Also removed the moss as some advised and the crickets are easier to spot now. So yeah, all I have now is coconut husk and a water bowl. I will probably later change it to half and half. So Thanks to you all and I will continue posting here if I have more concerns since everyone here seems so nice and willing to help. Thanks!

    I offer my crew food every other day. I like to feed them butterworms and crickets with waxworms as an occasational treat. Sometimes they will eat between two and five food items. Other days they will not eat anything. They will only eat until they are full and then they will ignore the food item. I bought some Phoenix worms online and I am going to see if any of mine like them next time it is feeding day. I read that they are supposed to be better than crickets. We will see. I am glad your guy is eating for you.
