    Default Re: need help for injured toad

    I would keep him at a normal temp in a moist, dim or dark environment with soil to burrow and a hiding place. If you already haven't you should gently clean the wound with a q tip. You could apply a small amount of regular neosporin. None with pain reliver or anything like that. I've used it on a frog with a nose injury for weeks. You could also put a very small amount of sugar granules over the neosporin. This keeps it in places and promotes healthy tissue growth without injuring the toads skin. Luckily he's a good size so if he doesn't eat while the jaw heals, he still could make it. It wouldn't be a good idea to try and feed him while the jaw is healing. The rapid jaw movement could delay healing at this point. A broken bone shouldn't be moved a lot, especially first few days. Crickets could also stress him out at this point. The eye is also concerning. He most likely can't see anything from that eye. The blood vessels in the eye have broken filling with blood behind the cornea. Hopefully there aren't any other injuries to the skull causing neurological damage.
