I found thousands of spawn in a manmade pond in a small park across the road from East Finchley tube in London. I took a couple of clumps home with me because I find them fascinating to watch. I was just wondering if anyone knew how sensitive spawn are to movement. Would they have been damaged in any way from being trasferred into a tank from their pond? I've tried to be as gentle as possible. I got some awesome photos of some of the breeding adult frogs, of which there were at least 100! Never seen anything like it before. Amazing James

I've only moved into this area in the last 6 months so I've never inspected the pond I found the spawn in before. The tank is pretty tiny so I'm not expecting to be able to keep large numbers in there at all. Fortunately the pond is just down the road so I can go down there regularly to release some tadpoles back as they hatch and grow. Thanks for the advice re feeding. I noticed thismorning that the individual spawn are no longer spherical. They seem to be losing their shape... and thismorning I even noticed one undeveloped black embryo just fall from the clump to the bottom of the tank. What does that all suggest to you guys? Thanks in advance! James James

It's incredible actually how fast they grow! They are just 2 weeks old and already have the beginnings of hind legs developing. Fascinating! James
