Default Frogs per Pond??

We have had a female green frog in residence for a few weeks. She seems to
leave in the morning and go out in the ivy to forage for food I suspect then
returns in the evening.

This morning I walked by the pond and thought I saw her. Later I took
another look and across the pond sat a male green frog. Deeper color,
larger tympanic membranes. Yellow underbelly where the female is more white
underneath.

He was sitting on a rock beside a very small wood frog. Then he took a
lunge at the wood frog.

So the questions a

Will the female and male green frog co-inhabit the pond or is he likely to
chase the female away since he seems grumpy?

Robyn has more than one frog in her pond - are they all the same sex or
mixed?

Will they mate in my pond with goldfish?


Thanks all,
