Why is it thought that frogs only return to the pond where they were spawned to breed.
I know Toads return to same pond to breed but do newts return to same pond to breed.
I have a new pond (1 year old) what can I expect to breed in my pond in the near future

Why do frogs and toads return to the same pond to breed? Well, it's probably because that means they are guaranteed (rain permitting) a good breeding site - but there are always a few that will end up in a new pond, so you might get frogs, toads or newts in your pond this year.
