Smooth Sided Toad owers Since there is little info on these guys, my hope is to get keepers of these magnificent creatures to join this thread to share their experience in feeding, housing & care. I recently brought one into your home and he's doing great. I've also got a FB page for him in hopes others will join in on that also. Just search Gus the Smooth Sided Toad.

Re: Smooth Sided Toad owers So I guess there are no other SST keepers out there, huh.

Re: Smooth Sided Toad owers Did some research, they're almost the same as any other frog/toad. They need humidity since they come from South America. They grow to 9 inches, can eat crickets and sometimes small mice.

Re: Smooth Sided Toad owers from my understanding the care is very similar to marine toads? they're one of the most beautiful toads i've seen, would love a pair but haven't caught them for sale anywhere

Re: Smooth Sided Toad owers I have two in a 40 gallon breeder tank. I've had them about a year and a half. The enclosure has a rock like cave as a hide. The rest of the facility has some flat slate which I use as a feeding area (standard for my toad setups), a few large semi-flat stones, two Bird's Nest Sanseviera plants, dried moss between the slate and stones. I mist the moss periodically, especially if the ambient humidity goes down. For water, I have one of those step-up-into water containers (X-large) made by I believe Zoo Med. I change the water daily, it gets messy quickly.

I feed them crickets, dubia roaches, earthworms and Fluker's canned grasshoppers as staples. Once in awhile I throw in some wax worms, June bugs, sow bugs, Phoenix worms, tomato horn worms and more. I don't do mice, mealworms or super worms. There seems to be no limit to their appetites. I've seen the larger one shoot his tongue out almost four inches (I measured) to successfully snag a running cricket.
They are kept in my garage, which is insulated. The temperature in the garage is between 65F and 80F most of the time but can get up to 85 on a hot day and down to 50 on a cold night. When temps drop below 60, heat lamps are employed.
Hope that helps.

Re: Smooth Sided Toad owers Thanks for the response. I've tried to upload pics but the site says it ain't gonna happen. But if anyone is curious about Gus and Gigi you can find them on FB. Just search out Gus, one drop dead sexy toad.
