How come my firbellied toad has no eyes?

We have had 2 firebellied toads and just purchased 2 more. When we got home we noticed that one of them has no eyes. I have to hand feed him. Is everything ok..should I continue to hand feed?

Answer #1

Seems like a birth defect, and yes you should continue to feed him if you want to keep him alive. He’ll be fine people can live their whole lives with out eyes, some are born with out them and are great artists today so I’m sure he will be just fine.
