Hi!

I have rescued over 30 Bullfrogs from our inground pool this last month. Our pool was let go for about 4 years, it was a huge "pond" for frogs and toads. Since we were burying it, I had to rescue "everyone."

I built a small pond and put 4 large bullfrogs and about 4 small ones in. The rest I put about 250 yards away in a creek type ditch, which is secluded with trees, rocks, etc.

I figured the frogs that stayed in my little pond could leave if they couldn't get enough to eat. I put the pond in the middle of large flower beds which are very overgrown. I have found the frogs sitting in areas under my flowers, perhaps looking for food. They all have returned after they had venture out. One large one did go back to the buried pool and found his home gone.

Also the few hundred tadpoles I caught were mostly all eaten by the frogs.

They are such an enjoyment to watch. I can be inches from them as I clean the string algae from the pond. But today I have to get in the pond to work on my large lilypad.

I also added a few hundred baby toads the size of a fly to my flowerbeds that I rescued just after they left the water. I have to be very careful walking around out there. I sure hope those bullfrogs are not getting out of the pond to eat them!

I just love my bullfrogs!
