Nature experts! Help! Frog/Toad Eggs!?
Question:I live in a hot area and i just found these slimy orbs in a pot of dirt that i have in my backyard. I am not sure if they came from frog who put them there earlythis morning not knowing that the are would be sunny later on.. or whether these eggs came from the moist bag of soil that i emptied of like a handful of soil this mornign at around 930 (still pretty hot).
The bag has been there for like a month so these eggs may have been abandoned...I don't know
WHAT DO I DO?!
Answers:
Generally when I find eggs in a pot of dirt, they are slug eggs! Slug eggs look kind of like pearls.
You will have to do a bit of sleuthing on this one- call a local veterinarian and just ask them for the number of a vet that treats exotics or wildlife (most vets keep a list of other area animal hospitals). Once you get that, call them and they will be able to help you better. My guess is you will either be advised to leave them alone, or maybe to move them into the shade somewhere.
