Re: baby newts still tiny

Yes i would move them, could you make your pond a little deeper to say 2ft just to be on the safeside, if not it should still be ok. Yes frogs will eat young nwts but thats all part of nature and a healthy wildlife pond. If you have plenty of weeds and algae your pond should be ok, when it comes in cooler if there is nothing on the bottom then i would many add something to shelter in plant pots etc, or possibly compost, you will be suprised how quickly material builds up on the pond bed.
