It is awful- Mickey Marinus got me the other day when I was taking pictures of him for the care sheets.

He nearly drowned his dinner too as I'd just put 2 crickets in with him

To be honest, amphibians shouldn't ideally be handled unless checking they are healthy etc. Cane toads will bare it better than most.

The reason frogs and toads to this is to make themselves lighter so they can jump further away (it's not actually urine but a storage of water they dispose of to get away quicker)

my lovely little toad Boop (named cos he makes a boop boopnoise likea truck reversing)Always emptys his obviously full bladder as soon as i pick him up (i thinkhe saves it lol). Will he stop doing this?, do you think or shall i always expect a loverly froogy shower??

He looks like a nice little fella - still got some growing to do though. He'll be massive when he's big

Go to photobucket and make an account (Its free and easy )
Then upload the photos you want.
Then copy the IMG code which appears below each photo and paste it here

Good luck

We've only had our cane toad a few days but have noticed he likes siting about and spends a lot of time in his water bowl compared to our other toads - Here's our setup:



dixie73 Posted - 11/10/2009 : 17:38:40
Also (again haha) Any ideas/pictures of a good setup for his viv. Will try to marshall my thoughts next time and put all my q's on one page lol.
dixie73 Posted - 11/10/2009 : 17:28:44
Also if i give him more than a few millimetres of water in his bowl he just sits in that all day instead!!Have i got a nutter for a toad or something?lol
dixie73 Posted - 11/10/2009 : 17:26:29
I have read care sheet. But the funny little thing just sits there like a statue while the bloody locusts walk over him!!! never seems to move from the corner of the tank and is not interested in the lovely moist hiding places i have given him! Whats his problem haha!??!!
