Yes! Thank you Dolphin! You made me smile so big. Webbed feet are cute ... I canโ€™t get over the gold on the top of his eyes.

I think of wealth and prosperity when I see him. Lots of Chinese have toad statues biting on a gold coin in their restaurants to welcome more prosperity.

Is that toady ??? Heโ€™s gorgeous .....uk toads are half that size ....what does he have for breakfast?

Starrlight profile image
Starrlightโ€ข in reply toSillysausage234

Heehee yeah they even get three times Toadyโ€™s size ive seen a real old large toad when Iโ€™d visit my grandparents place in Arkansas. Heโ€™d sit by a window below a light and eat bugs all night. But with this guy we tried feeding him worms at first but now I go to the pet store and get him crickets for breakfast! ๐Ÿฆ— ๐Ÿธ yuuum

No waaaay! Thatโ€™s too awesome! We have a fox den in the backyard. We used to see the pups play every morning and the adults go out to get food. What are feeding the fox?

lillyofthevalley37โ€ข in reply toStarrlight

I am feeding the fox dog food sometimes chicken etc although I stopped it a few weeks ago as I think cats and / or rats were getting to the food before the fox , however when the weather turned extremely cold I started to put food out again hoping the fox would get it

What an amazing toad, is it a wild one or a pet?

Starrlight profile image
Starrlightโ€ข in reply toKkimm

We found him the wild. He was stuck in a container that he couldnโ€™t escape from so we rescued him and were planning on letting him go in Spring... but we read that toads live longer in captivity and we also have fallen in love with him. And I think he loves us โค๏ธ ๐Ÿ˜˜ ๐Ÿฅฐ ๐Ÿ˜

You are so kind and sweet to rescue him! I have rescued some myself, but have never kept one as a pet before; but I want to! He looks big! How big is he? I love them in all sizes, but I especially love the big ones! Where about s did you find him? Was he near a pond? ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿธ๐ŸŒˆ

What fine companion! I wish I had a Toady as a friend. Which reminds me of a Larkin couplet: "Give me your arm, old toad; / Help me down Cemetery Road."
