Default bumble bee toads

HI I have 2 bumble bee toads. I got them 5 days ago. Have read everything I can find online. They are in a 20Gal. long tank Humidity is 75% Temp 75. They told me to feed them small crickets. I have ordered wingless friut flies but they hav not come as of yet. I have seen the one everyday but only seen the other twice. Just worried about them. Want to do the best for them. Can anyone help with any information.

Hi, don't know how big your toads are, but my experience with most toad species is that they are capable of going without food for a couple of days or more ( if they are fully grown). You wrote that you ordered fruit flies and that you bought them , so i'm going to assume that they are pretty small.

The fact that they are hiding is nothing to be alarmed about since you got them so recently, they are simply getting used to their new surroundings. Make sure that they have lots of places to hide, the more the better is a rule of thumb. All the hiding places will in time make your toads very secure and relaxed and you'll find that they (hopefully) won't hide as much.

The temperature and humidity that you have in your terrarium seem pretty good in my eyes, i've had a regular toad (bufo bufo), and housed him in the same temperature and humidity.
