About me

G'day! The Back Yard Frog Blog started with a simple idea: to share my passion for frog keeping with all you folks in suburbia. I reckon everyone should have the chance to enjoy these little fellas. My approach is all about providing quality info and a bit of Kiwi ingenuity. I'm committed to helping you create the best frog-friendly back yard possible. The page is named Back yard frog blog and I want to share my knowledge about frog keeping in your suburban back yard.
