Thanks for the input. It seems my male doen'st burrow as much as the girls do. Runway has been down for months and once it warms up enough I'm gonna release her into the wild. Now Morph is out most of the time now, but the other 2 girls stay undercover. I'm sure they come out at night since roaches are missing from the bowl on feeding nights.

I never kept the heat lamp on all the time only when I was up and at home I had it on. They never hibernated (except for my spadefoot), but they did burrow a bit during the day or half burrowed at the top of the substrate and one likes to hide under the hollowed log in the aquarium. Now that it is getting warmer the aquarium is sitting at 80 and 73 at night, and I mist the aquarium every couple of nights for the plants and the spadefoot I have. Then again all of my toads are native to NC.
