Alleghlulia, our Toad has been found, now my daughter can take it to school to race it against the other found toads.

I have been stalking the Toads in our landscaping and found one. I tried to find more, so we could bring for any child who happen to not find one, but we only found one. WE usually literally see them at our doorstep.

 

WE practiced racing this Toad, and it is a feisty fellar and almost got lost in the house. The thing jumped out of the kleenex box, and breezed my face when I was peeping in to check on him.Scared me to death. Now if we can keep a pulse in him while we sleep. He is in a box with grass and holes punched in the top. WE taped up any holes that looked like an escape route. I guess maybe I should google Toads and see what else I can do to help keep him alive over night.

I've been worried all weekend. Please tell me they aren't going to kill the toads and cut them up.

please release it back to nature and encourage others to do the same, we can not adequately care for them and feed them what they need, it is very hard and please do not keep it till it suffers a slow death. Its best to keep it for a day and release. They need access to adequate water sources but do not belong IN water.

Yes we are releasing it back into our landscaping tonight. No need to worry, it hopped well today at the school toad race, but didn't win. :(

I heard some cute stories from other parents who were looking in the ditch beside the road and ran into 2 cotton mouth snakes. There were only 4/18 who brought a Toad to school today for the race.
