Hi All - Re the toad toy - if it is a Bufo species (the big buggers) I
wouldn't advise letting your ferret play with him. Many toads secrete a
poison from their skin when in stress or under attack that can cause all
kinds of problems. Along with being a poison, it is a fairly powerful
hallucinogenic.... Anybody old enough to remember "Bufo-stew" fad and the
number of people that died from it???
