.. My
question is, what do frogs do over winter, we never see it & sometimes
when
we clear up the leaves during or after autumn, we find the frog under a
pile
of leaves in the garden. Do we leave a pile of leaves for it to spend
winter
in? and also how old do they live to?. Any advice to help keep the frog
safe
& well is much appreciated.
They do a sort of semi-hibernation and as you know that can be in any
sheltered place such as a pile of leaves, no idea of the average life span
but certainly more than a year. They are great slug eaters as well so good
news in a garden, you are lucky to have them.
