You can feed them worms… there are
1. mealworms 2. butterworms 3. ? Brainfart. they’re orange coloured, but they’re usually pretty big, the big ones are too big for the toads
I understand earthworms are nutritious, but you need to make certain the earth isn’t contaminated. Ditto with grasshoppers; just catch and serve. They love them!
Don’t overfeed worms, they’re fattening and can be a little tough to digest (waxworms are very fattening). I recommend that you do some research to make sure they’re getting the fibre they need. The toads really only need to be fed once a week (in my experience); otherwise and they become obese.
You will need to sprinkle the worms before you serve; I just crush one of my daily vitamin supplement pills, and add some crushed calcium with D-3. I’ve had my toads for several years now. Once again, don’t overdo with the vitamins.
Be forewarned, they’re escape artists so make sure the tank is secure.
