Lots of frogs but no action?
« on: February 19, 2010, 13:47:26 »
It prompted me to post this after reading theothermarg's post about her frogs doin' it.

We have a pond full of the wee critters. There's no sign of bonking....maybe they're all girls or all boys? I remember last year they had spawned around Jan, but its heading towards March now and I dont understand the delay this year.

Anyone know?
I was born with nothing and have most of it left.

Our frogs always spawn around the middle of March very rarely do they do it earlier
They will probably start courting around now but not in our pond yet. Just hope they dont get hold of any fish this year.
When I get old I don't want people thinking

I've just checked my records and it was 14 March last year when I found frogspawn so plenty of time yet I reckon.   :)
