75 Gallon PA Woods Vivarium (Toads & Skinks)

Nice! They are bigger than I expected them to be, the ones I had, although they were adults, were significantly smaller, those are approaching Broadhead skink in size

Do you think they pose a threat to the young toads that will be living with them?

Unless they're small enough to be eaten, I doubt it. They're like other herps where they can only eat prey a certain size or smaller. If you do notice aggression or the toads aren't getting enough to eat, then you could separate them, but I'm certain they'll be fine

I'll post the size difference from the Toads and the Skinks and I will be watching to see how the food gets distributed. I think Pious is a special toad. I don't say this lightly I think he is the toad that any toad lover would want to carry the banner into this setup to show how voracious and adventurous an American Toad can be. Ace is no slouch either. She sits proud and she handles herself. They are also young which means they will grow up understanding they have to compete for food. I'm not worried about the female Skink because they are not usually as aggressive. It will be interesting to see how the male Skink handles life with the Toads. These are the perfect 4 inhabitants for this setup. It is going to make for some exciting videos along with mesmerizing you by this setup. It's coming soon.

I can't wait to hear about the skinks, I've never kept any, but they sound cool and look really pretty. Pious sounds cool, I'm looking forward to seeing him in action in those videos you mentioned!
