Lots of issues here and I'm not sure I can pin the exact cause of the illness. Hopefully someone with more experience will pop in.

Firstly, ditch the moss. The toads can eat it and it will cause impaction. Secondly, primary diet should be crickets and/or earthworms...you can get the worms at most bait shops or walmart. Just make sure they aren't dyed. Mealworms can also cause impaction, considering it's been a month since you've seen feces, they're either buried or your toad is likely impacted. Wax worms are not something I would ever feed your toad, they are like a doughnut, lots of fat and no nutrition. Thirdly, they need their foods dusted with calcium and vitamins. And finally but very importantly, the tap water needs to be dechlorinated. Filtering does not remove the chlorine. I think most people here use seachem prime.
