Frog Spawn On The Lawn.

Found a small lump of
Frog Spawn on the wet
lawn. I put it carefully into
a small bucket with rain water.
This morning I put the spawn
into a window box container
with no drainage holes.
with rocks and weeds at one
end which is more of a shallow
shelf. I dont know if the eggs
are fertilised or not, lets see?
