It's been weeks since Morph came above ground, but this morning, there she was, waiting on food. They are such funny little creatures & it's amazing just how much joy these little friends give me. Man I love toads!!

Last night I got a super big, or should I say small surprise. One of the tiny toads from last year pop up out of the ground. I thought for sure none of them made it since it's been well over 4 months, but this little one came up, ate around 5 small crickets & 2 small roaches, soaked for a bit, hung out with the big ones for awhile, then dug under again. Figures this little one shows up now, we're getting ready to head to the swamp for 8 days. At least my neighbor will get to have fun w/this little bundle of joy.
I'm guessing a toad on the head is better than a monkey on your back.

and ANOTHER ONE pop up yesterday, it's a Fowlers (my fav). If all goes well I hope the other 2 show their little faces soon. Once I know for sure what I have I'll be releasing 2 of them, since 4 toads in a 40 gallon is pushing it IMO.

So Cute! How big are they, as a guess? It's hard to tell by people's hands. And when were they tads? That might help me figure out when Banjo came into the world. This makes me feel a little better about her not eating as much, and she's been burrowed since yesterday. It looks like an empty tank! But I know she's in there. And I won't bother her. Tho she has her seasons mixed up.
And I thought you had Morph and Rufus, and now the 2 little ones... so if 2 more pop up (and I hope they do), and you release 2, that'd still leave you with 4. Which to release I guess depends on how they react to tank life? I agree 4 might be a bit much, as the recommended 10 gal seems too small for one toad to me.
And Carlos, that sounds fine to me. That's what my Banjo is in, about, and I have room for another, which is why I made the upgrade to it, but never went and got another. It's hard to resist having toads tho.![]()

I'm sooo happy to be over the not-so-healthy part of new frogs. These guys are doing great and seem to love their new 36x18x36 Exo Terra home. Abe is the only one who will still eat from the tongs, but then maybe if I cut back on feeding, the other two would also. I still feed every day, and as you can see they are not going hungry. I guess I really need to start feeding every OTHER day instead. It's just so hard NOT to feed them when they sit on the bottom of viv where their roach dish is and give you that "we're hungry" look. Manipulative little creatures, aren't they.
I also love how they change their colors.
