I just got the teeniest little New Mexico Spadefoot Toad recently. Her name is El P and she eats tiny little fruit flies, which I have never seen before now.
I think she will be a great pet! Does anyone else have one of these guys?

@spottedbull Here is my little toad girl El P (she came from El Paso lol!) She is so so tiny. I could not brush any of
the substrate off her because she is so fragile still. I hope I can find some more fruit flies tomorrow because she has already eaten a whole tube full! But she is still too tiny for anything else I can find around here!
This is the best picture I could take, or at least the best of my ability!

@spottedbull It just never ceases to amaze me how such tiny little creatures such as she is can thrive and grow! I can’t wait to hear her little toad voice one day! Lol! She is a great eater and her eyes are quite large. Some people may not think she is all that cute but I think she is downright adorable!!! Lol:smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Oh I hope so! When she gets larger I will gently scent a F/T fuzzie with her and see if I can elicit a strong feeding response from my little problem child Hoagie hognose!
She is just way too cute!

Super cute! There’s an amphibian appreciation thread around here if you want to see the couch’s spadefoots (spadefeet?) I’ve caught recently. I really like them a lot, especially compared to the other toads we have here. They’re cuter and seem to have more relaxed personalities.

Utterly adorable! I can’t wait until El P grows a bit more! But I did not realize how tiny she would be and she gobbled up all of her fruit flies today so I am going on safari tomorrow to find more. She is way too small even for small crickets……
And yeah, is it spadefoots or spadefeets? Lol!
