"this is why you have to do your own scientific based research into the actual creature you own to learn about the environment it lives in and the behaviour patterns"
"why did you not know they would be "barking" and that they could upset your beauty sleep"

- I did research the toads before I got them. They are primarily diurnal, however they are active at all times of the day. I also found that they make noise during the day and night, but that they like to make more noise during dusk/sundown, hence why I was wondering if I could change the light cycle to make this happen earlier in the day.

"lower the temperature !!! why should the enclosure have been to warm in the first place?"

- My temperature is fine, I was using that as an example. Work on your reading comprehension.

"NATURAL = good, unnatural = not good in all aspects of life"

- If that's so then you should probably fly your toads back to Asia or Europe and have them released in the rice paddies or lakes that are their natural habitat instead of keeping them in a man made enclosure.

I would appreciate it if you would refrain from commenting on my posts/threads from now on, unless you have some fact-based information to provide. Thanks.
sorry for the reply here. the answer was a statement in general and not on your setup. the reference to the beauty sleep poser was due to the fact that is why the thread was started, no. it's not facts that you want from me, it's an excuse for what you endeavour. i will most definitely refrain from asking anyone to look after their toads in the best possible way here due to the fact that all i ever see and read is how the abodes will suit the owners lifestyle instead of what the needs of the critters ever are. attitude........all i know is people don't like being told they are not doing something right or that they ain't got a clue about the animal in their, ahem, care and especially anything about the sensory organs of any pet in question when placed in certain enclosures(another arguementive issue). maybe i should start taking advice from "those in the know" here so that i would be able to start a thread asking why have i a sick toad .
