Re: quick question
Lol, "baby" toads are tadpoles.
Toads carry parasites. I wouldn't feed it to anything. Release it back where you found it.

Re: quick question
Only feed prey that is bred for food, anyhting wild caught carries the risk of parasites and disease. Hence why reptiles in captivity tend to live longer than those in the wild

As tempting as it is to feed the toad away, don't. A buddy of mine once caught a mouse in his house, fed it to his king snake, then the king snake regurgitated the mouse and died later that week.

Re: quick question
Not to mention that all amphibians secrete toxins from their skin.
