Hope you all dont mind me dropping in here, been trying to find some
help for my pond in the yard...Its very small, something like 4ft long,
2-3 ft wide and I would guess about 2-ft deep. Anyway I have a bunch of
little frogs living in there now, dont even know what kind they are,
they do have web feet and make a strange sound, I was thinking maybe
small bull frogs?? As summer is getting away from us, I just wonder what
I should do as winter comes? Should I put some sand or dirt in the
bottom of the pond for them,(as there is none there and it is a plastic
pond) or will they come out as the weather gets colder? I hate to see
them die as I love the little things. I live in the southern part of NC.
Thank you in advance...hope you all have a wonderful day.

cant help with idents or owt (being in the uk we have a diff climate)
however MOST newsreaders will have failed to retain your post because of the
background and music.. Please DONT post to newsgroups with HTML.. set your
software to only post in text (not to mention now bandwidth is being charged
per size of download its considered bad practice to use anything but plain
text in emails and newsgroups (binaries hireachy excepted)

I wouldn't put any additional dirt in, more important to keep a hole in any
ice that forms, if you get ice. ~ jan

I live in central NC (triangle area). I currently have green frogs in
the pond and they all made it through the winter without a hitch. My
pond is about 3 foot deep and I leave the waterfall running all year
round to keep the pond from icing over.
