Hi Everyone,

I just got a group of 1.5 w. hognose and so far have only gotten two of them to eat. I've only had them for about a week, so I'm not getting too worried yet... but I want to have toad pops ready just incase.

I'm about to go toad hunting and have read that the toads should be frozen for 2 weeks. Will this kill ALL parasites?

Does one need to worry about pesticides?

Is it better to make toad pops/slurries or should I simply dethaw the toad to scent and then refreeze everytime?

Any input is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your help and time,

Ross Payan
