    No worries on the questions, it was mostly just me spitballing (probably unlikely) ideas. Glad to hear she seems fine; that's the important thing.

    Good luck keeping your head afloat at school.

    Glad toadie is OK. It's a challenge to know who's sick and who's hibernating. I have 4 females and a male. The male wants to sleep and everyone else is up and about. I pretty much wake him up due to sanitizing cage & worry. He does eat when I wake him up. But then I had Velvet who stopped eating; was still fat; then had neurological symptoms and died within a few hours. She had just been to the vet within 6 weeks prior! Tricky creatures. What is your toad's name? He or she? I have hillarious pics of mine in the albums.

    When taking pics of your toads, recommend ensure surfaces they come in contact with are totally free of chemicals like cleaners, etc. If it happens, such a contact could harm them and even be deadly .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    Lola's a beauty. Is she up and about or hibernating now? Chortles came up and changed his outfit.

    Was wondering if you lay the flowerpot on its side or make hole in side like a doorway ?

    I lay it on it's side. Lola went back underground weeks ago. I think this is due to their light above the cage burning out in December. I should probably get a new tank light.
