Hello all, meet my american toad friend, Banjo.

Cute toad! I agree, I'd leave the hide too. He may find he likes its when he comes up again. My toad used to hibernate on his own too. He'd come out every month or so for a good meal and a soak and then under he'd go again. I love the little guys. They have the cutest faces. They remind me of little grumpy old men, ha ha!

Gail, are your toads of the babies you raised back when?

they so do! so serious. banjo doesn't hibernate, just takes naps or rests or whatever. every morning when i get up, he's up too. that's usually when i feed him unless i fed him the night before. not sure what he does all night besides stand around and soak, but if i feed him in the morning, he eats (so cute how intent he is on food), then goes to bed. bed used to be a plant, but i'm very pleased that now he has a burrow. i may try a smaller hide. the cereal bowl was a little big. his home is only about 15gallons, so until i upgrade, i don't want to overload it.
