Posted: 06 Sep 2007 Hi IÆm new to the site, just joined the other week so I thought IÆd make a post Installed a small pond ( only 32 gallons) late February this year, let it settle for a month and then added plants etc, acquired a dozen tadpoles from one of the lads from work. All seemed to have changed to froglets ok (no fish in the pond) and since the pond was installed have had 3 adult frogs take up residence. A little about myself ( as there doesnÆt seem to be a new user introduction thread) Have always been into wildlife, reptiles have been one of my all time favourites in my early years (early/mid 70Æs) I used to keep the odd couple of sand & common Lizards the odd Grass snake, newts, frogs and tadpoles from the ôlocal small ponds at Deepcut rangesö now covered by a Golf course, then slowly moved into the exotics, BoaÆs, Pythons, Lizards of all shapes and sizes and even a spectacled Caiman! Now sadly all gone Due to WWW wine , woman and worst of all work! Well I'll have to try and get out ,to see whatÆs about, as I normally frequent wildlife parks these days (mainly Marwell) might have to try the Portman ravine? As that seems like about a mile from my nephews place. |

Posted: 01 Oct 2007 something strange occured to this years batch of my common frog tadpoles one in approx every 10 became very bloated during the final stages of their development i know sometimes before the front legs burst through they can look rather large, but this was after all 4 legs had developed in fact the legs looked very small, and i doubt would have supported their body weights have a look at the pics and let me know what you think Reformed Teetotaller |
