We can't get crickets right now locally because of the outdoor temperatures. We switched to the worms out of necessity, but Ted seems to have grown tons since starting them. I prefer the crickets since they are more affordable. And I do gut load them with fruit and veggie scraps for 24-48 hrs before feeding them to Ted when I have them. If I don't have crickets, how many meal worms and how often?

If I do have crickets (just crickets), how many and how often?

If I have both meal worms and crickets, how many of each and how often?

Yes, I agree about humidity. We spray the whole inside of the aquarium daily, and moisten the soil every other day or so, and Ted is more active since we began doing this. Ted even comes out when we spray to get misted.

How do you know its a she? Just curious...my seven yr old son will be devastated. Might not tell him. But it makes no difference to my husband and I, we are thoroughly enjoying this pet regardless.
You might have to buy crickets online for the toad because the toad will have problems after a while just eating mealworms. Earthworms and Roaches that you could buy online also are great to feed it. Walmart sells earthworms even though they aren't nightcrawlers the toad may still take them. Try Walmart for works by the fishing gear but as for feeding crickets around 4-8 for the toad if they are bigger crickets but what you can do is throw the insects in the tank and when the toad slows down take out what it doesn't eat. I am glad you are happy with the toad! It seems in good hands! The way the toad looks like physical features your toad has is of a female toad. They get bigger then males but don't croak.
