Posted - 06/10/2010 : 09:38:10 I have been given a big bag of Rainforest bark and am wondering if it's ok to use in an FBT setup, I know it's good for humidity but it is it ok for the toads? |

Posted - 09/10/2010 : 13:26:22 It's ok, I didn't want to take any chances so I have Eco-earth in there.
It's a large exo-terra 95cmx45cmx45cm with the Eco-earth substrate, some moss and large pebbles, cork bark and some fake ferns. I piled the earth to make a varied terrain with some cave like areas under the ferns and bark at the back and they seem to like it there. There is a large seed tray with water and rocks with a fern and piece of bark providing a sheltered area of water.
Temperature is about 22 degrees on average, 19 at night with 75% humidity on average.
There are five toads, one is definitely a male and is quite vocal.

Posted - 06/10/2010 : 15:18:25 I'd suggest not to use it - all it takes is to swallow one small bit when trying to catch food - then you have an impacted toad. Stick with Eco-earth if possible, no harm done if ingested. |

Posted - 06/10/2010 : 15:09:31 Should be, it's not toxic so as long as there's not a risk of them eating it and becoming impacted then it'll be fine.
Is it quite chunky or fine? |
