I love your girls (Toads)

My "girls" aren't bad either... I'm sorry, little loopy. I call the cats my girls too, so I need to elaborate with warty gals or furry gals.

Banjo is my baby. I wouldn't say I love her more but I can't help being partial to the one I watched grow up. Ukulele is a sweet menace tho.

Had to get up early for an appt this morning and as usual, every critter needed feeding when I got home from work at 10.
Banjo decided to take a long time stalking and swallowing her Canadian worm. She's usually more contemplative than Uki, but she really took her sweet toady time last night. But she did the toe tappin thing and I wish I'd been filming cuz it was crazy cute. Worth the extra wait (I stick around to make sure they both eat and to remove plate). I equate it to a dog wagging it's tail, and that she's excited about the impending meal. But my real theory is that the movement/vibration may be intended to make prey move so she can more easily locate and get it. Their vision up close isn't so good I guess. Not sure if that's correct or if it works. Maybe works better out in the wild.
Regardless, the taptaptippitytap of both toes is just adorable.

gorgeous toads you have! I know how it is feeling like you haven't seen a poop in ages haha
I think my toad must be just going in his substrate and I can't find it or something because he acts fine and eats great

Check abandoned burrows. Sorry it took me so long to reply.

Haven't been on with pics in a while but took Banjo out for a hop last week and tho she just sat there most of the time, couldn't help but turn it into a photo shoot. I was bored, and she was likely overwhelmed. This is a link (hope it works) to what she did basically the entire time: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v...09877494527559
I copied this from my phone and just now noticed I chose the one with my finger in it. But Ukulele is growing those.

Enough with the sad, here's Banjo. Appreciate these cuz it's making me upload one by one. Also she's too cute one can't help but appreciate her. Even when she takes 5min to eat 2 small worms. Exasperating, but she's contemplative like that.

These were there as a place marker in case she decided to move, then I found it to be a funny photo op. Neither of us were smoking.I dunno what I expected her to do with this.
Where's Banjo?

Stayed out as long as I could, being eaten by bugs, but I can only take so much fresh air and the outdoors.

She's looking good. I love the one w/the flower pot. Her expressions looks as if to say "HEY, whachadoin".

That was right before I took her inside. She was starting to notice the bugs that were eating me. In this one, she looks like she's ready to fight me..

She just inhaled three worms, two with multivitamin that doesn't kill them as fast as reptive and one uncoated. I would"ve filmed it but I barely had time. Good girl.

I watched a video of Uki the other day and it hurt. I miss her, she was so active and full of life, so WHAT HAPPENED? Only had her for 6mnths, what did I do wrong. I've had Banjo for a year and 9mnths, and they shared everything. Except for Uki biting my finger. But that was July and she died in January. Found her just sitting in resting toad pose, under log hide, with Banjo beside her. I made sure she was buried in a resting toad pose, and it wasn't easy digging a hole in late Jan, which is why it's so close to the house. Everywhere else was frozen and a storm was coming. Anyway, Banjo doesn't look like a murderer, so I am at a loss as to what happened.

I did feed her a spider that was lurking near their tank. Uncertain when that was, but even if it wasn't what killed her, no more found food. Maybe she ate a bit of the moss that I removed because Banjo refused to go near it. No more moss either.

The worms I mentioned were store-bought bait, eaten off a plate in tank the other day. I got it on video but again, it's 5min long. She wore out my camera battery contemplating them.
Among all the other things she didn't do when outside, like move, she didn't eat anything (i wouldn't have let her, if she got that look like she saw something, and since she's so slow about it, i'd have plenty of time to scoop her up. i'd hope so, at least.). No outside or free-roaming insects are allowed. I have a cat for that. Also a hammer for killing carpenter ants.

They're beautiful! My two guys also love Canadian Nightcrawlers. Your girls catch'em good
