How do you take care of an American toad?

Answer 1

Fill a tall plastic container with a layer of small rocks. Then put in a layer of dirt. Put bark, dead leaves, and other things in the habitat. Put in something for it to hide under. A broken flower pot will work. You can buy a shallow water dish or you can use a jar lid. Fill it with water. (Make sure it isn't too deep. Your toad could drown.) Your toad will also need food. You can buy small crickets or you can catch them small bugs, such as pill bugs and ants. Use a spray bottle filled with non-chrolinated water to spray their habitat everyday. They like the ground to be moist. They like spraying every now and then too. That's all you should to take care of your toad. Good luck! Fill a tall plastic container with a layer of small rocks.

1. American Toads can be found in forests, meadows, and gardens. They are mostly active at night. These toads are predators and they eat a lot. Insects, Spiders, earthworms, snails, and slugs make up most of their diet, but they will eat just about anything that fits in their mouths.

American toad tadpole in the wild feed on algae until they grow into toads, but there are many foods that can be bought such as blood worms, tadpole flakes, tadpole PELLETS, or algae from an unpoluted pond or swamp. these species morph SUPER fast, so you won't need the food very long.

Answer 4

Well it depends on the size of the frog. For big or normal sized American frogs it is best to feed them crickets, wax worms, mealworms, earth worms & super worms. For small American frogs I would feed them flightless fruit flies or three day old crickets.

Answer 5

Toads are voracious carnivores; they will feed on any animal smaller than themselves. Try insects and worms, but avoid stinging ones.
