Do American Toads like to climb?

[Heatheranne]

Welcome TrymNois,

Toads like to hide in little caves and would enjoy one . They also love to bury in their substrate.

I would still recommend you have a nice screened lid on the tank with something to weigh it down or lid clamps. Tiny toadlets can climb the glass if it is misted. Heavier juveniles and adults generally have no desire to even try and do not have suction-pad feet as do tree frogs. However, they are pretty strong for little toads and can push and lift things. If they enjoy their homes there should be no effort to try and get out .
