Need american toad enclosure ideas/help

Looks much healthier for the toad. Not sure how big he/she is, but you don't need a big water dish. Something big enough for it to soak in, they are not strong swimmers. Also you know NOT to use tap water, it'll kill em'.

Please read this before you continue with anything else. It can mean life or death to the toad. Frog Forum - Toad Basics - Keeping ground-dwelling Toads. A care sheet for Bufo, Anaxyrus, Spea, Scaphiopus, Ollotis, Alytes, Pelobates

yea I know that tap water will kill them that's why I have a aqua safe water conditioner for him.Also thanks for the care sheet I did all the research already though but it will come in handy in the future.

I just want to say THANK YOU for doing the research. I've seen way to may people that grab a animal, then try to make due with what they have, and the poor critter suffers because of their ignorance. Hope you and your new friends are together for many years.

Yea I Love any type of frog/toad and I hate to see them die so I do all the research before I even get the frog/toad. Also I just spent $21.00 at the pet store for his hide,another plastic plant,some crickets and the eco earth.

Nice change to the tank. My toad has a very shallow dish, just deep enough for him to happily sit in. It is large in diameter, but not depth. He sits in it ALL the time!!!

Thanks Amanda for the complement and that water dish is the only one I have and I didn't want to spend money on buying one.Also I just dug it into the soil more so he can get to it easier.
