wednesday1 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Only spotted one frog in the pond so far, there's normally many more by now and a good few lumps of spawn too. How about others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bears9h Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I have seen probably 4 or 5 at most in mine and a couple of clumps of spawn, my mum has loads of frogs and spawn though, I counted 12 on the surface in hers the other day within a few minutes.

davi Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I was in the peak district at Water-cum-jolly dale on Thursday. There was a lot of piggy backing toads on the path by the water and quite a few squashed ones on the road. You had to be careful where you put your feet. Brought back memories as a kid spending time down at rivelin, looking for tadpoles and sticklebacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuartB Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Hi, We find they generally couple up towards the end of February, do the biz and then go back and hibernate for a few weeks This year they were later, about 12 couples, and have left a bit less spawn than usual Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitewitch Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 We counted at least 25 frogs the other day, most of them at the hugging stage, got loads of frog spawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppet2 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 A stray frog ate all my tadpoles last year, so this year I am going to put chicken wire over my pond later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Soft Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 A stray frog ate all my tadpoles last year, so this year I am going to put chicken wire over my pond later. Is that to stop chickens eating the frogs that ate your frog spawn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wednesday1 Posted March 25, 2012 Author Share Posted March 25, 2012 Ta for replies, was feeling a bit left out so I have poured a couple of tins of tapioca into the pond. Fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
