Im not sure what some of the online literature is saying but I live in Canada and all I have seen is the regular subspecies of American toads and the Hudson Bay subspecies of American toad. I have yet to see a dwarf American toad however I have seen toads that were reddish in color but they were the regular size in fact I've seen toads in person and heard reports of large female toads that exceed the average size 3 to 4 inches( of course I am only talking about the area I live in and not the rest of the country) . I also wanted to say I did not mean to hijack the thread by anymeans. The young toads that this thread is about sounds like they are very well fed and are showing impressive growth for their age. 8 to 10 crickets isn't really required but I'm sure your toads aren't complaining about that. You should post some pictures to show their size!
