Default Frogs

I seem to have lost all my frogs. I had a colony over 30 strong a couple of
years ago. I know the untimely cold last winter ( 2007/8) limited the
breeding that year but I had some back last year. Unfortunately all the
little taddies got eaten by dragon fly lava in the pond. I cleared the pond
but no frogs this year.

They usually arrive about Valentines day. My mother has frogs and spawn.
Hers usually arrive just after mine. I guess I am frog less then? I don't
suppose there is a solution to this really is there? Anything I can do?


I wouldn't worry too much ours are very late this year in spite of the
amount
of flooding remember if you are out in the garden tidying frogs hibernabate
happily in dryish frost free areas so piles of leaves in corners under
wooden staging , boards etc are likely to be harbouring frogs and toads or
if you are lucky newts.
