    I have used organic soils from Home Depot for American toads before. There's a few things I didn't like, not sure if it was just the brand I got or not but they have pieces of woods mixed in them, tend to dry out faster, and water gets dirty easily. I know one of the member here uses organic soil mixed with coco fiber at 50/50.

    Caudata Culture Articles - Vivarium SubstratesWhile written for caudata, the same rules apply for frogs and toads.

    I use 60% coco fiber ,40% topsoil 100% organic from a garden center near me,I dont trust home depot,allthough i got some sphagnum,sheet moss from lowes. My pacman,pixies love it. For my timor monitor i use the same thing ,and cover it with magnolia lives,sphagnum moss and sheet moss. My wtf get the fir bark and that is good because the bark is to big to swallow.
