    Default Re: Weird injuries on toad - advice greatly needed

    So the vet did end up putting her down, I'll just go through what happened. She was looking extra cruddy this morning, didn't even try to escape the critter carrier like she normally does. By the time i got her to the vet she'd developed red-leg. The vet agreed that the fact he hasn't healed at all in spite of the TAO was very abnormal, and she also pointed out something I hadn't noticed, I guess because I was too focused on the medicines and such I was using with her? But the toad smelled really, really bad. None of my other amphibians or reptiles have a distinct smell unless they've used the bathroom and it was definitely coming from her- which I don't even have to say, is a very bad sign for ANY animal. It implies there's some pretty nasty bacteria there.

    So, that's that I guess. I'm very bummed it turned out this way. And as an addendum: the price of euthanasia sure is high :/
