We tried a few different husbandry changes in WPC\u2019s breeding program this year. Some changes were planned and some were based on our real-time observations as we watched the egg-laying season of wild frogs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It all starts with communication.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Shouldn\u2019t it always? We communicated closely with the team surveying frogs in the wild. By mimicing the behaviour of wild frogs, we hoped to increase the chances of healthy and successful breeding in our conservation tubs. We also hoped to avoid past years\u2019s issues when our overzealous males moved into amplexus position (where the male tightly grasps the female) very early. This early amplexus was resulting in what is effectively frog bedsores on the females, which can lead to infection and death.<\/p>\n<p>To avoid this we planned to keep the males and females in separate tubs over winter, so they wouldn\u2019t have access to each other until the time was right. The field crews reported that they often see a lot of movement by males right before the appearance of eggs. That got us to thinking. Maybe the males are moving more during breeding season and aren\u2019t \u201chibernating\u201d around the females, further confirming our decision to keep the males and females separate.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-7w5fk4p-aa14189e7d4a043be03cd8b670da4197 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mrwb1bpk-5bae74dba741a1e700887c2c70c5f6f5\">\n.avia-image-container.av-mrwb1bpk-5bae74dba741a1e700887c2c70c5f6f5 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-mrwb1bpk-5bae74dba741a1e700887c2c70c5f6f5 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-mrwb1bpk-5bae74dba741a1e700887c2c70c5f6f5 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-15  el_before_av_hr  avia-builder-el-first'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-53947 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-53947 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/EveryDaysFrogDay_-FrogAmplexus_A.Gielens.png' alt='Male frog on top of female frog which is called amplexus' title='EveryDaysFrogDay_ FrogAmplexus_A.Gielens'  height=\"738\" width=\"1019\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-7qt6ow9-88f00641b8a3e600e0d6ac305d70b06c\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-7qt6ow9-88f00641b8a3e600e0d6ac305d70b06c{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-7qt6ow9-88f00641b8a3e600e0d6ac305d70b06c hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-16  el_after_av_image  el_before_av_textblock'><span class='hr-inner'><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mrwb100b-66be2a23ae7046abcdad9b3326cfa73b'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em>Amplexus position, where the male tightly grasps the female during mating.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-77x13ex-6c56873263af2e7747eb6e5e3979817b av_one_full  avia-builder-el-18  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-mrwb1jnn-d4fd5bc552b36568f80a7865d392ca60'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><strong>Frog, meet frog.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Once the field team reported the frogs were moving in the wild, we prepped our tanks for introductions. One of the main things we do to put frogs in the mood to breed is drop the water in the tanks really low \u2013 so low that there isn\u2019t more than one inch of standing water above the submerged vegetation and debris at the bottom of the tank. In the wild, frogs lay their eggs in shallow water, when water levels naturally drop right around breeding time. We also make sure there are plenty of emergent plants and less open water, further mimicing wild laying sites.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And then we wait.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In a few days we started to see egg masses, lots of them. One thing we noticed right away is how closely the egg laying pattern was matching the wild. In previous years the females in the captive program laid their eggs gradually, over the course of a few weeks. One or two egg masses a night, and scattered around the tank and not clustered together. This is on contrast to wild egg masses which tend to be laid in a relatively tight time frame and are laid clustered together in a large group.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our females were behaving more like wild females.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-6t39zl5-bd9ee91fe9ceffe170170e8a6b6a113e av_one_full  avia-builder-el-20  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mrwb26vz-e6aee0084a5e20f0b03b93a0c47f059f\">\n.avia-image-container.av-mrwb26vz-e6aee0084a5e20f0b03b93a0c47f059f img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-mrwb26vz-e6aee0084a5e20f0b03b93a0c47f059f .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-mrwb26vz-e6aee0084a5e20f0b03b93a0c47f059f av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-21  el_before_av_hr  avia-builder-el-first'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-53949 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-53949 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/EveryDaysFrogDay_FrogEggMass_A.Gielens.png' alt='Frog egg mass in pond' title='EveryDaysFrogDay_FrogEggMass_A.Gielens'  height=\"738\" width=\"1019\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mrd4ll-d5b8cc14dcab62e2f33d6737ed0939a6\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-mrd4ll-d5b8cc14dcab62e2f33d6737ed0939a6{\nheight:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-mrd4ll-d5b8cc14dcab62e2f33d6737ed0939a6 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-22  el_after_av_image  el_before_av_textblock'><span class='hr-inner'><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mrwb2atn-0d799e9df9f27569108e7fe0b3fda9e7'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em>Oregon spotted frog egg masses<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-5yedr55-2af5483c0ac4ccd006a1aeb1bab3974c av_one_full  avia-builder-el-24  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_hr  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-mrwb3do4-e86dab3be6559260b28b81a6923a27de'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>We also noticed out of the first 14 egg masses\u2026all were laid in one tub, the tub the females were overwintered in. Interesting. With that many masses being laid we would expect to have at least some in the other tubs, which had held males over winter. To satisfy our curiosity we transferred some pairs, who were already in breeding position back into the tub that held females overwinter.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BOOM!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Within 20 hours of being transferred from the male overwinter tub to the female, all the females had laid their eggs, again in a tight group and right were the females had laid previously. Must be a nice spot!<\/p>\n<p>So we tried again. We removed the laid egg masses to their hatching tubs (to avoid them being trampled by the adults), we moved the frogs that had laid into a holding tank and moved in more pairs. These pairs didn\u2019t even wait a day, they laid within 5 hours of being transferred into the female overwinter tank.<\/p>\n<p><strong>That got us thinking\u2026is there actually \u201csomething in the water\u201d? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Well, we don\u2019t know, but we suspect so! Since we have one shot per year to observe anything related to frog breeding we have to wait till 2022 to develop and test any further hypothesis, but as of now we have great success! Not only did we get 41 of our 43 females to breed, 19 of those females were only 2 years old, which is young for an Oregon spotted frog.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of getting so many females to lay we also had no female death due to egg binding. Egg binding has been a problem in previous years, where females just seemed to not be able to release their eggs.
