Thank you!Simple, but natural looking, I like it
I agree! These toads adapt well to terrarium life and quickly lose fear of humans, associating us instead with food, hehe! They have a pleasant trill call too.These make great terr animals imo. There are so many of them around here, I think people just don't think about it. I kept some and they would jump at me when I walked by because they learned when that "thing" showed up, so did food, somehow.
It’s a simple set-up in a 20-gallon tank, no live plants, a mix of coconut fiber and peat moss with some sphagnum moss and leaf litter on top. I’m happy with it and my Gulf Coast toads seem to like it too.

They come out more in the evening, but you can see one of them in the third picture.Can't see the Toads anywhere.
Nice looking specimens. How many do you have toadal?They come out more in the evening, but you can see one of them in the third picture.
Here’s two of them as they were exploring their new enclosure (not mating, lol, despite what it may look like!):
I’ve had those two the longest and they seem to enjoy hanging out together.
One of the younger toads watching from their old enclosure as I tended millipedes.
Looks so yummy!
I was taking care of my millipedes when I noticed that one of my Gulf Coast toads was watching...

Four, at least three of which are male, but that thankfully isn’t a problem, unlike with dart frogs for instance. I found a full-grown female only once and she was so much larger that I mistook her for a different species and released her. Ah well, they get along just fine and are so plentiful that it is not like there is any need to breed them (but it would be fun ).Nice looking specimens. How many do you have toadal?
I had two and then three males in a ten gallon for a while, plenty of hides, although they often chose to hang out together anyway. Four felt crowded to me and I needed to change out the substrate anyway so I upgraded them to the twenty gallon.How many live in the 20 gallon?
Thank you!These are really great looking toads!
Sorry for the long-delayed reply!Do you run any sort of a clean-up crew or is maintenance pretty simple/they would eat everything anyway?
