Hannah has planted a diverse range of plants in her garden to create habitat and provide food for a wide range of animals. But while there are plenty of birds, insects and retiles in her garden, there is one creature missing – frogs. So she’s planning a pond to cater for them, too. Subscribe 🔔 http://ab.co/GA-subscribe

Hey 😀
I LOVE FROGS
Awesome
This was perfect timing, just planning my frog pond. 🐸🐸🐸
a small island gives frogs a safer space to avoid birds and cats
Nice pond, using weed plants not so good
I generally use a small length of Soaker Hose connected to a Fish Tank Air Pump, dropped in the bottom of the Pond to keep it Aerated, cheap & simple technique
how can we when the local councils turn up claiming we need permits or a license for this kind of thing ?…
you do know you can’t have anything on your own land without permission these days 😅
Snakes LOVE ponds 🐍
We will need a follow up video, please! 🙂
Were is part 2? I want to see the frogs.
It would be nice to see something about building a frog pond in cane toad country.
