They seem to be doing well, but I am concerned about the temperature of their water. Right now, there is no need for heat or AC, and my house is about 71 degrees F. I put their tank a tiny bit in the sun later in the afternoons so they can get a little vitamin D. I am just concerned about the water being too cold. It doesn't feel like it is above 70. I am buying a thermometer today. Any advice?

Hi,
I don't have toads, but I will try to help.
Dust their food source w/ vitamin and calcium.
Please ! Don't put them in the sun! They will be micro-waved.
Purchase a thermometer.
Simply house them the way they should be housed?
If you do not now what you have ; perhaps post a photos in the toad? section so a FF member can help ID them.
Then you will be able to do the research needed to take proper care of them.
They will be soooo stressed otherwise! ::
If they can not be ID and they are wild caught, go back to where you found them, look the area over carefully /duplicate their surroundings as closely as possible ? until they can be identified.
