    Default Re: New to Toads; general advice would be appreciated.

    Hi! I keep two toads myself,and what you've heard about voracious eating is true. So far I've fed them mealworms/superworms, crickets, pillbugs, earthworms and dubia roaches. Personally I'd recommend you try crickets if they aren't going for meal worms. Mine certainly preferred them to superworms, but one of my two toads adapts to new foods more readily than the other. Having a hide is great, but adding some plants can help make them more comfortable, if you haven't already. You may need to add a heating pad for them once the weather gets cooler.i hope this helps, I'll add anything more that comes to mind later. Oh, and mine usually come out of their burrows for food. I usually just drop it in their field of view and they go right for it.
