My fire belly is great but I'm worried that the store hasn't been feeding her enough. I just got her so it's not me. I know how much to feed her, but do I add supplements? If you could send me pics of a well fed toad and a malnourished that would GREAT! Thanx!

Sorry I don't have any pics, but don't get too discouraged. If your fire belly is malnourished and has been for too long it may be too late to do much. Take it back for a refund or exchange.
If it's not that bad, and maybe you're just exaggerating or paranoid about your toad's health then I would say yes there is supplements (and it's a good idea to get this either way) There is a white powder that is Calcium Dust. You put a sprinkle into a plastic bag and throw in some crickets, 1/4" preferably. Then you shake up the bag just like shake-n-bake. The powder will stick to them and create a tasty and very healthy snack for your critter. They also have other type of powder used the same way. Even one that is especially for frogs and toads. But if you can't find any others the Calcium will work , get it at pet smart, pet co or where ever pet stuff is sold.
Good luck

look on net. i have no pics. but it sound likes your toad has a calcium deficiancy. if he/she is shoeing signs get some vitamins. put them in a spray bottle with water and spray wall of the tank. they get them better that way.
