Hello,
I introduced myself Saturday as having just brought home a "Moroccan Toad" (Bifo sp.). This is my first time with toads/frogs. I have had a veiled Chameleon for a while. Yesterday I put two crickets in the habitat, and Mr. Toad was interested... I saw him go for cricket twice, and miss. This morning both crickets were still in there.

Being a Velied Cham person, 3 things came to mind, and I got a little freaked and removed the crickets. First, Chams are never ever supposed to have substrate because of risk of impaction. This guy's mabitate has short of cubed/shredded/crumbled coconut coir as a substrate. From what I've read, this is okay.

Second, we always worry about hungry feeders nibbling on our friend in the night, which leads to third, we typicaaly have some kind of feeding cup/container.

So having removed the cricktes, I tried putting in a super worm, that burrowed and was gone in about 4 seconds.

So here's the stupid question... do we use feeding cups for toads? If so what kind and how? If not, how do we manage these challenges- or is this just a stupid question that amphibian people know that lizard people don't?
