HOW TO TAKE CARE OF A TOADFirst, you'll need to get dirt thicker than the toad so it can burrow into the dirt for sleeping.
Then, sprinkle mulch on top of the dirt.
After that, take your water dish and dig it into the dirt so it's like an ingrown pool. TIP: Don't get a deep water dish or else the toad might drown.
Then, put the toads food into the tank so the toad can practice hunting like it is in the wild.
After that, put your toad into the tank and your all set!

∙ 12y agoWell, you just shouldn't keep it. First of all, you should NEVER keep a frog that is from the wild. The wild toads are sometimes poisonous and all toads have a poisonous gland behind each eye.
Second, if you REALLY want to keep it, it's a lot of work...=) Altogether, all the supplies could end up costing you A LOT!!! $50 to $100 for a good terrarium, $5-$15 for bugs for the toad to eat, $10 to $20 dollars for the substrate, and any extra money for leaves, branches, and things for them to climb or sit on.
Plus, you need a basking lamp and a hydrometer, for the perfect temperature. So seriously think about this and decide. And you have to touch and KEEP ALIVE gross, jumpy, squiggly crickets and worms and flies, and so on.
But after all that money, it kinda pays off, because frogs and toads are truly fascinating pets. If you have kids, or if you are a kid, it would be very educational.

Why are bucket trucks parked with the buckets in the air?
If it's a truck with a bucket on it, you'd keep the bucket raised when parked for marketing/visibility. If it's a boom lift (cherry picker), it's probably to eliminate wasted space and keep people from messing with it.

Can fire belly toads live with fish?
Yes IF - you have enough water so the toxins from the toads don't kill them - the fish can survive in the same temperature range as the toads - the fish are going to eat or nip at the toads -the poison will not kill or make the other fish ill at contact such as a healthy Betta fish. Lots of people keep feeder guppies with their toads. Sometimes the toads catch them. But is very rare. Mine didn't catch them.
