a corridor for the frogs shouldn't be a problem my plot backs onto an unused plot ( not been touched for about 8 years like mine my new friend Burt tells me ) and on my plot i have given up a patch about 6ft wide and 20 ft long at the back of my shed because its just not worth trying to save it a the mo it full of old rubble glass wire wood plastic and everything that people have dumped i did say i would tackle it one day but i could just leave it
Help! I have three of the plastic compost bins with lids. They are approximately 4feet high. Recently on turning the compost in the bin I haven't used for several months I found a very alert and healthy looking frog. I'm not sure how he got in as there are no gaps, although it may have been when I tipped in a bag of leaf mould a couple of months ago. Anyway I left the lid open for a while so he could escape but he chose to stay. With the lid shut he is effectively trapped. Is this okay or should I physically remove him to a more free environment?
I made a small garden pond last year, added tadpoles and fish. The tadpoles disappeared and I assumed the fish ate them. We were still feeding the fish beacuse they were surfacing every night but unfortunately they all died with their mouths open, full of food and sticking to the 6inches of ice. One frog returned to the pond and my son said “we’ll have frogs this year.” “Not with one frog we won’t”. I replied worried because he’s now 13yrs. Anyway, I found a source of approx 100 tadpoles. We now have 1cm frogs and still several tadpoles. I have put in oxygenating plants which the tadpoles have been enjoying. The plants are survivng and growing. However, I was taking out dead leaves and found a green almost silky like webbing at the base of the pond and wondered if this had something to do with frogs? If any could advise what it is? We are installing a filter and pump before we buy more fish but should we wait until all the tadpoles have developed into frogs? I very much appreciate any advise.
We are in a severe drought. The cracks in the ground are forming. We can only spot water. I saved these frog eggs from our pond before we drained it for repair. Now they are getting their legs, yet I just found a dead, dried up grown frog. What could I set up today before I leave town tomorrow,for 7 days. There is just one small garden that we are watering because of the butterfly bush that is supporting the butterflies. Help a.s.a.p.
I have a dilemna ... I want to cut my grass but its moving with baby frogs/toads(?) ... don't want to kill them or disturb their habitat too much. I live in a rural, coastal location not close to a river. I would welcome any advise on what I should do?
