American Toad Care Guide

[Conrad Lucas]

The American toad is one of the easiest amphibians to keep (not to mention easiest to get). Its range covers much of eastern Canada and the United States. They live in marshes, wetlands, and riverbanks, where they depend on perennial water sources and dense vegetation for hides. In terms of setting that space up, you can be as simple or complex as you want. Toads do well in bioactive aquariums, but beginners will probably want to start with silk plants. For all the details on how to set up an American toad habitat, as well as what to feed them, check out our full writeup.

I didn’t realize how sensitive their skin is until reading this—definitely makes you think twice about cleaning products and even handling. Really helpful breakdown for anyone considering a toad as a first amphibian.
