I started this post yesterday then realized I'd already posted about her appetite and the biting of my fingers. When I brought it back just now, noticed that a word I wrote that is not vulgar was starred out. I was talking about the tilt of her head when she watched my fingers, trying to figure out if they were food. Used the same word in past tense one would use for a pistol that is ready to be fired. Eh so anyway, she tilts her head like a dog.

Her appetite is still crazy, and I feel bad that I can't give them a variety at the moment. No more dubia breeding, or anything breeding, and I've sprayed the exterior of house and garage with pesticide, so no outdoor collecting. Goes against my character but more than half of my stuff is in garage attic and earwigs just bug me out...
Had to purchase mealworms as a reptivite conveyance system. And earthworms as a staple still. Basically I have to stick with feeders that can hang in the fridge or won't run away and infest or get lost in the house if i dropped some. Banjo can't digest phoenix worms, and I think hornworms might be too big for 3in toads. Might have to order silkworms again. Butterworms for a treat? I dunno.

They're in basement, with a dehumidifier that I empty daily and turned up but can't get the humidity in their tank down past 70%. That was from >84%. Had to give them bigger water dishes cuz somehow they were filling up with dirt, sucking up all the water. All that splashing about was water-logging my dirt. I know it was Uki, but no one's fessing up. The bigger bowls are plastic which I don't like, but leaving them slightly above the soil line has kept some of the dirt out, without keeping out the toads.

post worms: this one was so cute to me, it's now my fb cover photo:

Let me state that the following is not something I condone, was just trying to show how she tries to eat me and everything else that moves. My hands were clean, fingernails short and filed. She's ok, and I feel bad.
Anyhoo... (the squeaking is the paper plate)
and this one is just feeding time, no fingers but i had to worm-block there's one more but I won't link to it cuz I'm making a vulgar gesture.

I wonder if she goes after your finger thinking it's part of the worms she eats since you hand feed them to her. LOVE the videos and when they shoot their head up and tilt it........OH MY GOSH......it's the cutest thing EVER!!! Morph does that all the time, and every time he does it I say “ohhhhhhhh”. Toads are just to dang cute. FYI, you're not the only one to flip off a toad.

I think I'm perpetuating it, by hand feeding sometimes (she'll take from tongs but also go after the tongs so don't want her to hurt herself or try to eat a poop i'm plucking out with them (yes, i know, gross, but i wash them well)). I don't always feed her that way, try to use a plate, but it can keep her busy when Banjo is still studying her prey. She'll try to eat anything, like poor Banjo hopping by, or camera wrist strap, a fake leaf that moved cuz I breathed on it, anything. Of course she's thankfully not successful, but it's wacky.
Soooo many poops. I don't think they all belong to Uki, but I'm going to guess that most might. The differences between the 2 toads is striking. I'm hoping it's just that Banjo always had a steady amount of food after her abduction, plus calcium & vit supplements, while Uki's diet may have been more feast/famine.

I could photograph her for hours, til she tries to eat the camera:

Are you starving that poor toad? I love the look in the first few pics. That look pretty much says it all. FEED ME.......NOW!!!
