Yes you are correct, but at least the toad would not of been at risk, got no sympathy as i don't think handling for photo shoots is beneficial to the toad.

To touch a B.Orientalis then touch your face is crazy IMO, was you not aware they was toxic?

your right, I'll get a telescopic lens and take photos of them through the tank. And if I ever have to touch them again it will be only while wearing welding gloves and a viser, ensuring to keep them at arms length.

I'm sure your the kind of person that has never made a mistake, not even a spelling mistake

Thats real low and pathetic when ones only come back is to pick on grammar and spelling mistakes.

There is no need for a telescopic lens, just open the vivarium door and snap away. Be honest were they even photographed in the vivarium? They look very staged to me.

Why don't beginners ever learn the basics first, WEAR GLOVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yet another entertaining and informative addition to the thread

I'm not looking for sympathy from you, I've said I'm an idiot and careless and laugh at me

I'm not a beginner, I have been keeping these little guys and breeding them for over a year now with no problems at all. I've always been very careful when handling them and ensuring they never come to any harm. They weren't photographed in the tank, there was a special set up used for them with low lighting and a warm moist atmosphere.

On this occasion I was a little careless no harm came to the toads, only to me. I won't be repeating the mistake

lets leave it now

what the hell, lol. a good thread gone bad. thats the first time ive seen that on this website.

anyway, yeah.. you can still touch your face with gloved hands but it seems as though the gloves would help be a reminder not to touch your face.


but, easy mistake. sounds like something i would do. lol
