Frog now gone: Anyone know about frogs?


minder

Recommended Posts

I get frogs in my garden now and again but this one appeared yesterday in my fairy garden. I thought it was just basking in the water and then it hopped away last night.


It's appeared again today but I think it must be ill as it's got some spots on it's leg which look like ulcers.


I've been keeping it covered with water but don't know what else to do. It hops about now and again but has been still for around 4 hours now. It's about 7cm long.


Anyone know what I should do or is it just what frogs do?

Just checked on Mr/Mrs Frog and still here!


Local vets very helpful tonight but not sure about care of frogs so will phone Marsden tomorrow.


Phoned Marsden this morning as frog was still there up until I went out around 11am but just realised they're not open Fridays. Anyway frog had gone when I got back this afternoon. Probably enjoying the rain!

    • Please understand that I am not doubting the word of anyone who has posted here with problems with bought-in prepared meat, but (I am old) uncooked meat (perfectly 'good' meat) does smell often, we are too used to shrink wrapped and chilled supermarket meat which can be almost scent free - so we are surprised when 'butcher's' meat does smell (and often, if it is uncooked, quite strongly). Indeed game which is high can smell quite strongly, and not in a good way to our 21st C sensibilities, without being off - as in food poisoning off. Certainly prepared meat, when cooked, should smell enticing, and not at all bad - so the experiences quoted above are certainly very worrying - but younger people reading this should not be concerned, particularly, if fresh (raw) meat they have bought from e.g. a proper butchers has a smell to it. Which is not to say that something which smells rank shouldn't be a point of complaint. Even the smell of high-ish game, if left unwrapped, should dissipate once unwrapped. If it increases however it may be  cause for concern. But raw beef or lamb in the joint can often smell of something which isn't necessarily particularly nice, without it being worrying. It will tend to cook with more flavour.
