Last week, while checking on the animals at the end of the day, a keeper noticed something amiss with the toad:
Dr. Lewbart happened to be visiting with some veterinary students- what perfect timing for us to have an expert on grounds for some sort of prolapse with this toad.
We use a product called MS222 to put the toad to sleep. We put the toad and MS222 in water. Once the toad is ready, the work can begin.
The stitches came out yesterday and we’ll hope this was a one-time thing!
Did this fix the problem permanently or could it recur? I’m glad the toad is OK!
We’re hoping this is a permanent fix, but we really don’t know.
