Re: Tadpoles

Ours is just a tiny pond tomcat, so not a lot of trouble to maintain. So far no frogspawn though, disappointing.

Re: Tadpoles

Just thought I'd resurrect this thread after today's frog party


Since I started this thread in February, there's definitely one tadpole left or is it a froglet as it is showing its tiny legs now. Can't believe it's so late!

The daft thing is, today the frogs have been at it almost non-stop, making their mating calls, frolicking around in the water and generally makings waves. And now there's loads of frog spawn.

I'm reet chuffed having new frog spawn when there's already a grown up tadpole (froglet). If it hangs around it will be able to tell the newbies what I get up to and where to hide when they hear the back door open

Re: Tadpoles

Pesta, that's great. No activity whatsoever in our pond though!! Sigh. Maybe next year!

Re: Tadpoles

I fear I have very shy frogs,the spawn is starting but the pond is silent.

Re: Tadpoles

See very few round here now, used to be thousands when I was a kid.

Re: Tadpoles

Must be because you've cleaned the pond Val

My pond is filthy and totally unloved but they seem to love it
