Toad feeding related issues

[Larry Wardog]

A good feeder for toads you can use staples of the regular pet store crickets, banded crickets, calci worms and I have just found from a knowledgeable and trusted source earthworms are not necessarily the best feeder for toads because they can contain parasites and it's more difficult to determine whether an earthworm is safe or not.

Feeders that you should also include while using a staple diet are wax worms, butterworms and isopods if you can. The hornworms that are smaller are good but try and stay away from mealworms because they are difficult to digest for toads.

the picture I sent you, you don't have to gut load or use supplements because they aren't necessary with this feeder for the insects that I posted a picture of. I have seen a tremendous turn around in my animals by using this. the vet basically told me that all of the different supplements I was using were doing nothing and the gut load that I was feeding my insects was not actually helping or benefiting my animals. so you don't have to worry about using too many supplements or them getting a vitamin overdose if you use this. It's going to be difficult and I know I have a lot of people to try and convince but take it from somebody who's been in the hobby for years and just found something very useful and beneficial out and wants to try and help all those who will listen. I'm not saying you're not listening but anybody who I post a comment sharing this food with them I'm hoping it will get around the forum and the other forums so people will start using this. do you know how incredibly would be if we could end calcium deficiencies for our pets?

I appreciate all responses I may have to try the bug gut load diet I will just have to get it shipped to my house as there are no petco stores that I can think of in Canada
