HELP! Question...I have a toad I rescued from a car dealership parking lot. I took him home and set up a tank. Had him about about a year and he dug a hole I assume to hibernate. Then he came out after a while. Soon he Hibernated again during the winter of 2023 & it's now April 2024 and he has not come out. I'm getting concerned and wondering what's going on..whether he died while buried or will he come out eventually?
I took in a toad to feed it and draw it for a week, but it was too cold to release it afterwords. I figured I keep it for a season, but my sister just told me they forget how to hunt. ;-; I’m quite fond of him, and have him set up in a 20 gal, but I still feel a bit bad
Glad you enjoyed! The only regular maintenance I do is cleaning the water dish and trimming the plants when they get too big. Otherwise the clean up crew takes care of most everything else. I have a different video on my channel all about bioactive tank maintenance!
You might need a fogger to maintain the humidity if your toad keeps soaking in the bowl every night. I lost a toad to dehydration because I only gave him a water bowl and didn't use a fogger because I disregarded how important it was to pay attention to the moisture in the air.
