Water Dragons and toads for food ???

Tubzzzz Aug 16, 2005 04:08 PM

Can anyone share some information on this. I found a small toad that my Water Dragon(Scooter) could eat BUT, I don't know if they can so I don't want to feed it until I know about it. Has anyone else fed toads to their animals.

Please share your knowledgs, Thank-you from Scooter.

Toads carry all sorts of nasty parasites. I wouldn't give it to your dragon.

Toad have poisonous secretions, as well being poikilothermic like the waterdragon, which means any parasites or diseases will likely be communicable.
