Hi everyone,
I have a half barrel pond in my garden, and last year Pacific Chorus Frogs laid eggs in it. I now have even more frogs. Last night they mated again for the first time this year and there are new eggs in the pond. However, there are STILL tadpoles that have been in this pond for almost a full year now!!!! I never knew it could take this long for these creatures to metamorphose. Should I be concerned about the new eggs? Will the tadpoles or other frogs eat them? I haven't done anything to care for these frogs, they are just living off of insects in the garden. I have counted 10 tadpoles left in the pond (it is only around 30 gallons), and I noticed one of them hanging out uncomfortably close to one of the sacs of eggs. Are they in danger?
