    A thing you can try feeding it is termites. Termites can be found under damp wood. They look like small whitish ants. You can put them in a shallow dish the toadlet can get into. I fed termites to a tiny fence lizard once before I had crickets.

    I will try that. My toad currently eats pinhead crickets. I remember someone saying I could feed toads weavils. Id like to know if there is an online store that has pretty much any type of feeder insect/invertebrate for a good price?

    You can also try small moths, earthworms, meal worms, and even house flies. I have a small (1-inch) Southern Toad that eats anything it can catch that fits it its mouth.

    House flies? I thought they'd be bad. Don't house flies carry diseases? Sides they actually spray around my house and in it. Its why Ived been holding off any breeding of anything. When I move to the basement I will buy what they call "critter keepers" and raise the insects in there. Iam thinking of breeding the wax worm moths in there. Actually Iam going to transfer the moths to a jar once they start to mutate into moths. :P Id breed roaches but I think my parents may go against that and say thats the last straw. :P
    I was thinking Id study grasshoppers and find places that sells them alive. When I do id breed them. Again I like hoppers more than crickets.
