I need some help. I accidentally closed a toad in my window. It stayed that way all night. The next morning when I opened my window he fell over backwards. He was still alive. Poor guy. His back feet are paralyzed and one of his back legs are swollen and red. Over the past week I have had him in a 10 gallon aquarium with a heat source, rocks, grass, and a small bowel of water. Twice a day I put warm water in it with a small amount of powdered amoxicillen. He is eating and pulling himself around. I feel horrible. Would it be better to amputate his legs? Leave them? What is an appropriate antibiotic? There is definitely an infection. Now I am noticing red bumps coming up his legs and on his body.
