    a sad update...
    baby gave up today. only had 1 fruit fly in the 15 days out of water and that must of been enough to through in the towel. I always had doubts since she came out of the water. she always looked a lot more tadpole like then the other toadlets. she was always to weak and never seemed to form perfectly. R.I.P. little baby

    So now Im down to 4. Tad who is a cow and the other 3, all of which are doing great. Here's a video I made yesterday of Tad having a fly.

    I know my Cure.

    It's good to see other people raising toadlets.

    Can toadlets overeat? Tad is such a cow I dropped a few fruit flies in this morning in within a split second he has one of the other smaller toadlets half way down his throad. I gave him a flick or two and he spit the toadlet back out! the other guy acted scared and didnt eat for a while but seems ok.
    I'm going to get crickets. flies just arent enough for them, especially tad. just want to know if I should feed them till they stop eating or can they overeat and die?

    I find that they lose interest when they get full. I'm not sure it's possible to overfeed a toad. I've heard other people say "feed them for 15 minutes" but mine usually get full before that, so it's kind of a moot point.

    If Tad is so big that he is able to swallow the other toadlets, you might want to move him into another container.
