Frogs again

Pond pics

I took some pictures of the frogs, fish and pond with a real camera instead of just with my iPhone. The water is staying clear and the fish are doing really well. There are a few comet gold fish and some koi in there. I know that the pond can handle the koi at the size the are right now because they are only three inches but it will only be able to sustain about 3 full grown fish so it looks like I’ll be digging a new, bigger pond next year. It’s a good thing I know exactly where I want to put it.

New baby frogs!

When I set up my pond I had a friend’s son catch four frogs for my pond. I didn’t expect the frogs to breed because I figured that the fish would eat any eggs or tadpoles that were created, I was wrong, life found a way. I was outside just now and I counted five frogs. Two large frogs and three little ones. I’m sure the large ones are originals but the little frogs looks new. I’m amazed that they managed to survive getting eaten.

Here are some pictures.

The frogs!

Here are pictures of the frogs in the ponds. I had a friends son catch some frogs at a pond near his house. They seem to be pretty hoppy (see what I did there) because they seem to be hanging around. It was about a month ago and they’ve definately gotten bigger.

I’ll catch them and either send them back to the big pond they came from (I mean that literally not the one in the sky) or figure out how to move them inside. I could set up a fish tank with the water hyacinths. I already buy small crickets for my lizards, I could buy fruit flies…I’ll have to think about it. I’m attached to my froggies. That and I know they are healthy. I’d hate to introduce frogs from a pond at this point and risk introducing something that could get my fish sick.
