toad's slow death

[Sunshine]

I am really sorry to hear about your toad. If you want to euthanize him you can apply neosporin with benzocaine painkiller on his back. The benzocaine is what kills them and I heard that this is a very humane way to put them down.

Sorry to hear about this & wish I could advise but I'm new at being a keeper of the toads. I have 2 that I've raised from toadlets since mid July 2011. I hope someone can advise quickly.

thanks for the kind words.. This past summer i actually brought home about 30 fowler tadpoles from the same pond/area that i caught my two bigger ones , none of them survived. I've had a more mature one last year but it ran away when it fell out of it's container..
worst luck with toads.
