How much to feed American toad?

[Larry Wardog]

Hi, I have been keeping toads for a long time and have a pair right now actually and I can say if you drill holes in plexiglass and put it over your lid it keeps humidity and I think you will see a huge difference in the activity of the toad. The temp is good but in the winter if you keep them a bit warmer they will bypass dormancy unless you want to hibernate it. So if you feed the crickets honey cereal or fruits and then feed them to the toad that's the best it can eat along with earthworms. Waxworms are good to fatten them up and for a treat. Feed the crickets more to the toad and it will be healthier. 2-3 times a week and about 4-6 large or medium crickets should do it with some waxworms. I believe it looks like a female but I have to look more at the pictures and you should invest in a 20 gallon at least for the toad. They like to explore and will enjoy more room. You can use the 10 Gallon for another animal or temporary housing so you can keep it safe when you clean the tank.
