Some pics of the girls

Love this!! I wish I could get mine to eat worms, they look at me like I'm crazy when I put them in their viv for food. I always have the canadian night crawlers for my garter snakes & I've offered them a few times, but it's a no-go for the toads.

Have you tried the Europeans? They're smaller and you get more in a cup, 30 as opposed to 18 at wmart. Maybe they'd be less intimidated? It was hilarious when Banjo took down a tangle of them at once.

Banjo emerging from her burrow on Saturday. I came home on break from work to feed them and couldn't find her, so Uki got the bulk of waxworms.

Home again after appt, wanted to feed them but Banjo is shiny and in midshed, so it'll have to wait til tonight and i may as well go back to work.

I love your girls (Toads)

I love your girls (Toads)

My "girls" aren't bad either... I'm sorry, little loopy. I call the cats my girls too, so I need to elaborate with warty gals or furry gals.

Banjo is my baby. I wouldn't say I love her more but I can't help being partial to the one I watched grow up. Ukulele is a sweet menace tho.

Had to get up early for an appt this morning and as usual, every critter needed feeding when I got home from work at 10.
Banjo decided to take a long time stalking and swallowing her Canadian worm. She's usually more contemplative than Uki, but she really took her sweet toady time last night. But she did the toe tappin thing and I wish I'd been filming cuz it was crazy cute. Worth the extra wait (I stick around to make sure they both eat and to remove plate). I equate it to a dog wagging it's tail, and that she's excited about the impending meal. But my real theory is that the movement/vibration may be intended to make prey move so she can more easily locate and get it. Their vision up close isn't so good I guess. Not sure if that's correct or if it works. Maybe works better out in the wild.
Regardless, the taptaptippitytap of both toes is just adorable.

gorgeous toads you have! I know how it is feeling like you haven't seen a poop in ages haha
I think my toad must be just going in his substrate and I can't find it or something because he acts fine and eats great

Check abandoned burrows. Sorry it took me so long to reply.

Haven't been on with pics in a while but took Banjo out for a hop last week and tho she just sat there most of the time, couldn't help but turn it into a photo shoot. I was bored, and she was likely overwhelmed. This is a link (hope it works) to what she did basically the entire time: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v...09877494527559
I copied this from my phone and just now noticed I chose the one with my finger in it. But Ukulele is growing those.

Enough with the sad, here's Banjo. Appreciate these cuz it's making me upload one by one. Also she's too cute one can't help but appreciate her. Even when she takes 5min to eat 2 small worms. Exasperating, but she's contemplative like that.

These were there as a place marker in case she decided to move, then I found it to be a funny photo op. Neither of us were smoking.I dunno what I expected her to do with this.
Where's Banjo?

Stayed out as long as I could, being eaten by bugs, but I can only take so much fresh air and the outdoors.
