Broken or injured limbs are usually the result of rough handling during the capture process or while in captivity. Keep the toad by itself and in a stress free environment. If an open wound or infection develops, swab with Bactine (not betadine).

Thanks Terry![]()
I am not familiar with keeping these, I even thought it was a toad. What ive been able to glean from web searches is that I need to keep an under tank heater on her in her 20 long, have a nice hide, like a half log, and use the coconut fiber as a sub-straight. I have a large bowl for soaking and, have been letting her eat as much insects as she wants. Ive been dusting the insects with vitamin powder to give her back any nutrients she may have missed in her obviously troubled travels.
Please inform me of anything else I can do. I cant find much on care for her species and am using cane frogs as my blue print.
Thanks in advance,
Roman

Check out the Toad Basic Care article, link on the left. They do require a large space (can reach well over 5 inches). Substrate is a mix of compost and slightly damp moss. Temperature around 68(F), they are mostly nocturnal. Large, shallow water bowl would be welcomed. Gut-loaded crickets and mealworms are basic staples.
my freind keeps rococo toads he has some huge ones hope the pics do them justice
