Hello all,
I have been answering a lot of questions about toads lately, so I have decided to post a thread on toad facts. My info is limited, because of where I live, but feel free to ask away!

Feel free to answer questions as well, I am always eager to learn more about one of my fellow pets.

Sorry for confusion,

Where exactly is the toxin in the toad?. Many of my chickens have ate toads and nothing happen,from my understanding the poisonous toad is the Cane toad.

They are located on the neck, my chickens eat toads all the time and it doesn't bother them either. It is because they aren't lethal toxins.

Don't want to scare anyone either, most toads can't kill an animal
