Dumb questions: Do you cut back on fertilizer if you have a frog in your orchids? Is the nitrogen in frog urine from urea (not a good nitrogen source for orchids)?
I wouldn't worry at all about relocating him - he'll probably do it on his own. They seem to be sort of nocturnal - seldom see one moving around during the day. |
i dont think there would be enough frog urine to make a noticeable difference, that would have to be a BIG frog!

I love how the frog's colors match the orchid. He really looks happy there.

LOL! I went to check this morning on the little guy and sure enough he was still there. :) He must have had a big meal yesterday. All snuggled up nice and cozy. Thanks for all the great comments!

The only "harm" issues would be possible ones for the frog. For instance, if you bring the plant inside your home, and if it decides to leave the plant, it could get lost in your home and meet an unfortunate demise. Another issue would be if you need to treat the plant with some sort of pesticide or fungicide. Because frogs can easily absorb many chemicals through their skin, they tend to be easily harmed by them. As long as your plant remains outside and poison free, the frog should be find until it decides to find another pad.

That's awesome. The only things I get in and around my orchids are ants, palmetto bugs, and mosquitoes. Oh, and the occasional spider. :biggrin:
