Fred number 324 :) 
Fred number 324 with the future 5000 freds.. still to be named! - Overall pond, 5ft by 3ft, 3ft deep, quite small, some rocks have fallen off edge into pond during winter.. still to be picked out. 
Mid croak! 
Turned around, not croaking 
Cheeky croak ? :) by the way, i have now taken to removing the spawn from the pond as i discovered that snails eat it ?? ? ?, i removed some as the year before it had dispeared, there were some snails in and they did eat it. However now it is snail free and last year was successful ly hatched and returned to pond. |
