Cane toad update

[jasonm96]

Thought I'd do an update on my Cane toad. For the last month or so I suspected that he may have had parasites but found out I took an inaccurate humidity reading, this most likely was the problem and switched heat sources from a ceramic heat emitter to infra red heat lamp to a heat mat, so far the heat mat has been the best as it does not kill the humidity. He's only ate a few times infront of me but I've been leaving mealworms in a dish for him and seen that in the morning he's munched through most of them. Hoping to start taking him out and putting him in a large rub to feed him crickets. So far despite the toads bold appearance he's definitely one of the most anti-social amphibian I have! I say he as I suspect it is a male due to the size. Hoping to get him a companion at some point.

So far the set up consists of a large wide Exo Terra terrarium, coarse bark and moss substrate, XL turtle hut, XL Exo terra water dish, Heat mat on thermostat and soon to put a Komodo 10% UVB in the light dome.
