Fascinating about possibly being a wooodhouse toad! I will look into it. Yes, we live within that range.

Even as a staple food, we are unsure how much nightcrawler Ted ought to be getting. Ted would never be satisfied, is perpetually hungry, so I fear overfeeding. Ted's rate of growth rapidly increased with the wax worms...so I knew there was a problem.

Do you concur with AAron that Ted is a female, even if a woodhouse toad. My husband thinks its "grunted" a couple times, but has never squeeked or peeped.

Thanks again!
