Yes, pet toads will hibernate by burrowing themselves in the dirt. Though I've heard that if you keep your pet toad warm during the winter like it would be during the summer then it won't hibernate, but won't live as long.

Yes, they burrow down into the mud or leaf litter when it begins to get cold and lower their bodily functions to near death and sit out the cold months.

Comparison between frogs and toads?

Toads have round bodies that are dry and bumpy. Frogs have thin bodies that are smooth and moist. Toads have short stubby legs that do not jump very far in proportion to body length, while frogs have long legs that jump great distances in proportion to body length. The tadpoles of the toads are generally black, while the tadpoles of frogs are generally brown. Toads live on land and only return to water to mate, while most frogs will live in or near water they're whole lives. Toads have glands behind their eyes called paratoidglands that producebufotoxinwhich varies in intensity, while frogs have no such glands. Toads have "warts" which let them store fat, while frogs don't. Frogs' skin can allow them to get small amounts of oxygen, while the toads' skin cannot do that. Toads hibernate in holes they either dig or find, while frogs will just bury themselves in the mud at the bottom of the pond to hibernate. Frogs have longer legs and can jump farther in proportion to body length, while toads have shorter legs and jump less than the frog in proportion to body lengthToads and frogs also tend to differ when they lay eggs. Toads typically lay eggs in a string in the water. Frogs tend to have theirs in a big bunch.


What do toads do for fun?

Toads and frogs usually hibernate during winter months. They bury themselves under mud and are frozen. When it gets warmer, they thaw out and continue living. This is why you never hear them at night when it's cold season. For those toads and frogs who live in warmer climates, they eat the same things. All of their food is around year round, since the seasons don't really affect weather that much.


When we take toads out of hibernation how long before they move around?

How long can toads hibernate? The American toad, Anaxyrus americanus (formerly Bufo americanus) typically hibernates underground, below the frost line. In the Northeast, toads are driven into their burrows sometime between September and October and re-emerge from April to May.
