Over Eating

[ScumBum]

If you put too many crickets in the tank , will a toad keep eating till he over eats to death , or will he stop himself when hes full ?

My two toads eating habits are really different . One goes crazy after the crickets , the other one pretty much stays in one spot and if a cricket goes up to him he "might" eat it , he doesn't chase them like the other one . So the crazy one ends up eating alot ! He ate so much this last time his belly got big and he didn't move for a day .

The lady at the pets store said crazy one will eat first , because hes the dominant one and the other guy will eat after , so I put extra crickets in thinking he'll get full and the other one will eat the rest . I came back later to the tank and to me it looks like the crazy one ate most of them !

this is quite different from the usual "my toads won't eat" scenario we normally get.
would'nt have thought it was a dominance issue though. you just have one hell of a greedy toad there. the other toad will eat when hungry that's for sure.
