March 4th was the date of the first load of Frog spawn in my pond.
As I live in the frozen North East, I was wondering when you soft southerners with your semi-tropical ponds found the first clumps of spawn. -------------------- Peter.

Nothing yet in west Wales, only about 300 metres from the sea. You just got real hard frogs up there.

The pond is now awash with Frog spawn, I can almost see the Orfe licking their lips in anticipation.

Live in Lancashire and as yet no frog spawn. But what I have found is a lot of frogs in pond with strange disease. Skin spit mainly around limb joints. An odd one or two with limbs missing. Theses don't live long, usually dead after a day or two.
Is anyone else coming across this phenomenon Regards -------------------- Regards

Jerrydog,
Interesting post that. A couple of years ago I emptied my pond, the following morning there were a few frogs trapped in the bottom which had been exposed to a severe frost & were quite literally frozen! They eventually thawed out, but all died later after suffering the exact problems you described. -------------------- Peter.

Still no spawn, even though the last few days have been warm. On the otherhand it looks like some of my fish are going at it!
