Odd Discovery

Toads will spend most of the day under ground or under a rock or log to keep
cool and come out at night to hunt.
But it would not lay an egg or a blob in the hole... hmmm.
Now, I have yet to observe toad poop. Turtle poop is huge compared to the
turtle involved and encased in slime (hope no one is reading this before
breakfast...)
My situation, when faced with something like this, and my mother, husband and
children can attest to this sorry habit, is to bring it home, put it in a net
covered jar and wait to see what happens! I learned to cover the jar the hard
way... baby froglets hopping down the hallway at 5am and snake fish slithering
for the laundry room...




Hi Group. 'Lynne' posted to our local 'bulletin board'. There hasnt been a
response. I thought I would post it here, just in case someone had a
notion.
"Maybe one of you out there can help me a bit. I recently was widowed and
I has at my husband's grave putting down some soil for seed. The following
day there was a hole near the edge and I laughed because my husband always
was bothered with ground squirrels so I thought one had come to live by him.
The next day I went by and I saw something move..there was a frog or most
likely a toad about the size of the palm of my hand backed into this hole.
Last night I went by and there is an oddly shaped, almost peanut shaped,
white blob in the whole, just one and really the size of a peanut. Would you
know if this is some sort of egg...It is not a styrofoam peanut blown into
the hole...there wasn't a critter in the hole so I got a good look at this
blob. Thanks "

Thanxx
