Babies.....

Hi, we have babies again, but these are a tad different to last years..  One, they are very much smaller, at first I thought they might have been canetoad eggs/tadpoles, but after exhaustive research on the 'net, I'm pretty certain they are not.  What they will grow into, apart from some type of frog, I have no idea.  We do have a small goldie coloured frog that is a regular around the doors, windows etc, so I'm assuming these will grow into them. Not very scientific I'm afraid, I have been unable to even put a name to the goldie frog. Regardless, I tend to the babies every day and have boiled them up some lettuce iceblocks.  yum!!

Excellent luck, I have been looking for taddies in all the troughs but haven't found any yet. There are none in the trough where we used to collect tadpoles every year...Janet

Hiya Janet, lovely to hear from you, keep looking, I'm sure the frogs down there will be on the same noisy round the ones up here are on!!!

Congratulations Mother Tadpole! My neighbour called me over this pm to collect the grandfather of all green frog off her veranda. She dislikes frogs but knows that I offer safe harbour for them in my potplants. Took some photos to blog.
