OK, I get it now. Do you have enough substrate for the toad to bury itself? My toads like to bury their body and stick their head out to watch for food. Your terrarium conditions may be too dry depending on what species you have. Some like it dry and others prefer higher humidity. My dwarf African bullfrog will hold its head underwater for hours, then hop out and bury itself for a few days. Amphibians from temperate regions do well with a humidity gradient (places with high and low humidity).
