Fire-Belly Toad Escaped Enclosure - HELP!!

[firefly]

Hi Andry - I didn't think they could climb either, until I spotted one of my FBTs right at the very top of the glass, & in the centre too - not in the corner !!

I've also seen another of my toads jump up from the substrate & land on the side of the tank, sticking there for about 10 seconds. Amazing.

They are crafty little beggars, & suprise me every day

I do hope you find Cricket soon poor little thing. Good luck

Thanks all. Can someone tell me how long I have before it's too late for this guy? How long before he dries out? I know it takes a week or so for them to survive food wise, right?

I would guess it wouldn't survive without water after 48 hours, at most. The actual time is probably a lot shorter.
