    Default Just watched one of my Toads die :(

    Sadly, my newest FBT passed away today, Nameko had been living with me for a few months. I sat and watched him and im afraid to say it wasn't all that pleasant, as im sure he was quite distressed even thought it took minuets. He was fed and he ate his crickets as usual, within a few minuets he had brought back up the crickets and had a little pink lump hanging from the corner of his mouth. He leapt about, then went very limp, then made an almighty effort to get going and fell on his back. After that his body heaved a few times and then his legs spasmed an he died ...

    I am frightened to think he brought his stomach out with the crickets or somthing. I am rather sad about it and i shall miss his high little 'beep beep' call (his voice had not broken)

    My Mum and I wrapped him up and put him in a tiny box and i shall bury him in the garden tomorrow morning. I hate losing pets no matter what they are or how long they are here

    RIP my little one eyed song-ster.

    So sorry for your loss Mushrooms. Yes it is sad to lose any pet.
    I'm sure Nameko had the best of care and sometimes these things happen for no reason and are not anything we can prepare for.

    Rest in peace Nameko.
