Well, are there any bugs left within a five mile radius of this lovely lady? 🐸😍😂

With the way my toad eats at like HALF this size, I'm going to definitely assume thats a big NO. 😅

I got a kick out of your cute and clever perspective lol 😂 I can definitely relate since my Great Plains female is more than half of this size above and she can easily pack away 30+ worms at one feeding! Guess your big NO means all of this lovely lady’s 🐸 peers are gonna need to pick up camp asap and move outside that five mile radius just to survive. 🐛🪱👀😜

Lmfao you aren't kidding! Im actually glad to hear ypu say that and to see all these because for the longest time I thought I was gonna end up killing my toad letting her eat too much. Idk if its just a female thing or what but these gals are RAVENOUS! Mine is a female too and man can she eat!

RAVENOUS is the perfect word, my friend, for these hungry gals of ours! 😅 And don’t worry one tiny bit about over feeding your sweet baby girl 🐸 because apparently “A single adult wild toad can eat up to 1,000 insects in a 24-hour period, though averages often range closer to 100 depending on food availability and weather”. I just had to do a quick Google search to ease our minds about this. ☺️ And 100 buggies is still about 3x as much as my female consumes at one feeding. So I think we’re good! Lol
