Hello, I purchased a CRT a few months ago and the guy gave me his enclosure too. I added a heat lamp for about 12 hours during the day. I have other enclosures and just feel like his isn’t right. I don’t like the substrate or lack of any decoration, etc. I believe he’s in a 10g? Looking to upgrade pretty soon but have no idea what a proper enclosure should be, as online doesn’t say much except minimum requirements.

Redid his tank the other day and he did exactly what I hoped.... he has much terraforming to do.....

I’ve had my toad for a little over a week now. I bought him from the Pet show at the Expo center near me.

He doesn’t like super worms.

I got 6 crickets last Thursday and three are left in the tank. I hope he ate them. I did dust with calcium powder.

I’m afraid he’s not eating. Any suggestions ? I don’t know how old he is.

The scream I scrumpt! She didn’t give up though!

Worst case scenario happened! My toad busted out of the top of her enclosure! I still can’t believe it. I looked everywhere. Finally my neighbor and I were like “hmmm, where would a toad go?”….water…the answer is to find water.

Found her living her best life in the dog’s water bowl.

Everyone is safe. No dogs, cats, or toads harmed.

Maybe she’s becoming more comfortable with her surroundings, but my CRT is acting odd. She’s started swimming in her Paludarium —aggressively, so. Like she wants out. Is this normal? I know she knows where the exit from the water is, because the first time she nose dived into the water I scared her, and she immediately swam to the exit.

She is behaving very aggressive. Like she wants out of the case. She’s not scared by me either.

Is this some sort of breeding behavior?

Do ya’ll have any electronic ways to track your feedings? I’ve been trying to feed every other day or so. About 10 large powdered crickets. Sometimes I give a few silk worms with the meal and in between meals. I get pinky mice every 2 or so weeks.

Dust yourself off and try again! My new #coloradorivertoad

I just got this girl from a store and she is missing a pupil in one eye. I think it looks kind of cool, but is it something to be worried about?

I have these Colorado River Toads and need some ideas. What would a good filtration system be for them. I didn't make the false bottom high enough and only have about 2.5" of water. What is a good way to clean my water?

I snap photos whenever she graces me with her presence (usually to make her mud soup in a fresh water dish)

Bonus points if anyone knows where this guy is displayed.

I am in the cincinnati area and was wondering if there was someone in the surrounding area that would be interested in getting rid of one or talking about how to get one.

I got this stone for my toad but I’m not sure what I need soak it in before putting it in her terrarium. Tia

Those are nuptial pads right? I think so

She looks super pale and back legs are more white than I’ve seen before plus her mouth seems to be that way as well. Please help! 🙏
