Nature plays a few random acts like this each year - sometimes it's a good idea, sometimes not so much.
I, unfortuately, thought the same about the froglets. I'd hate to see it, especially with it right in the yard. I have another aweful thought...the green frogs in the pool will most likely "snack" on the froglets before they even leave the pool. I realize these things happen and understand nature happens for reasons, but I'd rather not be a wittness to it's cruelties.
I have this gut feeling I'll be taking in either tadpoles or more froglets
If I am compelled to save some of them could I release them in spring? or am I stuck with the little fellas? I wish I could give some of these froglets another home.
I was reading the fish and game commissions rules and regulations and it said you cannot sell, trade or barder, but can you give away frogs that you raised yourself??? It's a gray area(no pun intented) I'd be happy to give some away, if I can, to anyone who would care for them????Anyone close who'd be willing to raise these guys...no charge?LOL.
