Building Bigger FROG Hatchery And Relocating FROG Eggs From Drying Up Drainage Ditch By The Highway

I do not encourage anyone to enter culverts, unclog anything, or enter flooded areas as it can easily become deadly without the proper training
I unclog drains for fun in my spare time (I have been trained in culvert inspections for years with private co.) and I am osha trained.
Exploring anything abandoned can be dangerous or deadly without experience. I don't encourage anyone to enter any abandoned structures. Not only is safety a concern, but often times its illegal, and when possible I seek out permission from the owner or local police. I simply go to document its history before it's gone forever and I leave things the way I find them. I only take pictures and only leave footprints. I assume all the risks and responsibility before doing this. Please don't attempt to do this on your own. There could be nails, asbestos, falling concrete, soft floors, animals, or other hazards. Thanks for watching.

Frogs and Clogs season - Spring is here!

[@IMPCGaming]

Frogs, clogs and draining bogs.

[@DavidDrouant]

@@IMPCGaming removing logs

[@hevchip741]

You lot are so funny 😂

[@kel319100]

And polliwogs.

[@hevchip741]

What about the hedgehogs!

[@etienneblanchette7847]

If you want the cycle to happend faster in the new pond, I recommend you take some water from an already cycled pond. That way the good bacteria will multiply much faster as there will already be some colony in it. I do this with aquariums and it works great.

[@ArcadeFires]

Hi from Chicago! Regular viewer for almost 5 years now... I really appreciate your passion for nature and conservation! Looking forward to another warm weather season of adventures!

[@JuanitaHundley]

That’s amazing! I’ve never seen anyone build a pond for any reason. It looks really good! Thanks for building, explaining and showing us the process you went through. I hope you’ll occasionally show us updates on how it’s progressing. 👍😊

[@IMPCGaming]

Dude, you made your own anti beaver/tadpole mini culvert run off with that shower drain. I love it. Great job.

[@randomviking8676]

Great video! You must have been hurting after that workout but you did an excellent job! Had to laugh when you put the floating turtle in the pond, looked like he was having a good old time.😊 Love that the adults came back to roost! Shows they approve of all your hard work. 🐸 The new pond looks like the perfect size for a plunge pool for your neighborhood bear. 🐻 I don't remember, have any turtles found your ponds?

[@post.10]

I have not had any turtles show up yet, but we have lots of salamanders and snakes that I didn't put here and I accidentally brought a fish that reproduced now there's dozens of them, but thankfully, it's not a fish that gets huge, so I might leave it. My big pond has a school of fish. Not only get about four inches average each

[@daedubois9428]

I loved the frog videos from last year and I'm here for the upgrade this year and new frog vids!😊

[@carynbuck4444]

The pond really turned out beautiful! Can't wait to see some water lilies blooming! Frogs will be stoked 🐸 💚

[@MomfiaQueen]

Love the pond. I keep picturing little miniature beavers 🦫 (think: aquatic hamsters 😅) moving in to do battle with Post. A Ken-doll, wearing thigh-hi rubber boots, running a tiny rake through cattail debris stacked on the overflow valve... Seriously though, Post, I admire you on many levels... genuinely wholesome. 👏💜

[@randomviking8676]

😄 LOL, that cracked me up! I can picture it!

[@yvonnecook8635]

Dug up a part of my lawn to get soil and found an old wedding band buried in the dirt. Also found two really old bottles. Good job, Postie. Nice to see a bigger pond this year❤️🇨🇦

[@Catperson84]

Thank you for saving the frogs

Who else misses the storm drains unclogging videos?

[@post.10]

Ot doesn't happen anymore

[@graceangel5146]

I so miss working outdoors. My goal is to be able to do it regularly again but that won’t happen for a while. This was a joy to watch in the meantime. Thank you! 😊

[@tracybowling1156]

The froggies are going to absolutely love it at your house! I love the waterfall!

[@DrissDaniel-rn1qc]

It’s like “the sims” when you’re in fast motion ! Lol

[@bobair2]

I look forward to seeing the results and I hope the frogs will enjoy the little pond you made for them,right on Postie!

[@roseannevillalobos3949]

Great, I love the new pond. I would use the dug up rocks at the edge of the pond by the spillway. Only about to the 2nd light on each side. Place the big rock close by so you have a place to sit and watch them grow and enjoy listening to them night sing. 🐸

[@diane_alworth]

Absolutely amazing. You make it look so easy to build, but I know it wasn’t. I adore the frog/tadpole time of year. Looking forward to seeing it grow.

[@doubledeadlocked7701]

I enjoy watching you build this pond "on the fly" which is exactly how I built my own pond. I even enjoy shouting out stuff when I see you potentially making the same mistakes I made. 😂 "Those baskets won't keep the roots from taking over the pond!" 😮

[@thegiq]

You've got your own tiny lake drain now :)

[@user-gh9mh6tz5o]

Great job, amphibians are having a hard time worldwide these days. What a great thing you're doing for your local conservancy. Interesting design, well thought out.

[@rjypsiesmith3244]

The winch for big rocks?... And OMG an even bigger frog pond!! Nice! lol

[@joseywilds3133]

Saw a chewed up tree from a beaver today and thought “post 10”!

[@Peripeteia111]

Absolutely love these videos. I learn so much from you, as well as viewer comments. Thank you for rescuing these frogs (and salamanders!). I’m so inspired and can’t wait to tackle something like this when I can.

[@post.10]

The salamanders all showed up on their own. Never brought them here, but they come here and breed

[@blakewhite3131]

​@@post.10they saw the renovation of the pond and couldn't help moving in to such a nice home

[@RuthArdis-wp5sx]

Rinse the rocks off and use them as part of your landscape around the pond and some plants make it look nice . Maybe take some of the small ones and put in the bottom and create a little areas for them .

[@marionmclean3749]

Nice tidy job! Looking forward to seeing all the wildlife again this year.

[@joannecraft-lane8660]

I really enjoyed this video. You're amazing ... so many things you know how to do on your own. I was impressed with how you cleaned up your tools after installing the pond. And those googly eyes on your toilet made me laugh out loud...cuz that's something I would have seen in the fun-living home I grew up in. Again, great video. Thanks for sharing it!

[@slob0516]

Sick with cancer treatments and watching him dig this hole was amazing. I'd love to be able to dig a hole like that in less than a week.

[@davestelling]

Some of the best memories of my youth - catching tadpoles with my brother at a little pond near our house in Maine...

[@runninonempty820]

Great job Post, that was a lot of work. Your heart is in the right place.

[@ryanmeade6742]

What you did with the dirt and tarp was genius!

[@cerithomas2032]

You work so hard post and you never give up when things go wrong , you did a fabulous job on the pond the froggies and tadpoles will love it . ❤️

[@Plectrudefy]

Great video, I like how you explained everything, and the new pond looks really nice! I can't wait for the update on thre tadpoles!

[@bibib1721]

Nice hour with post at his backyard! Water dribbling, sunshine, yellow clogs, Watching post working (28:30 Man, you’re really fast😆), … What can be more relaxing? Love it! Thanks post 🐸🫶

[@markm6488]

This is going to be a Beverley Hills frog house! 🐸🐸

[@mgratk]

Awesome Post! Enjoyed the frog stuff last year. This will be fun stuff.

[@nathancull3476]

That drain setup looks all right. I don't know what the Home Depot's carry where you are, but I know ours has those tank wall bushing adapters from 1 in all the way up to 2 1/2 in. We bought a bunch of the 2-inch ones for the 1200 gallon water Reserve we have in the basement made up of five big tanks plumbed together we have natural spring water that's been here since 1740 when the house and the property was built and established. We've done some recent work to the spring, the spring itself holds over 2,000 gallons of water in itself and more in the aquifer around it then it's gravity fed a cup of 100 yards to the house and into the reserve tanks in the basement. The water is very pure and very clean but it does pass through a UV light station then through a jet pump an expansion tank and then a couple of sediment filters.

[@lynnforrest3384]

Wow! Thank-you for building and supporting environments for frogs to be born and survive! And- for teaching all of us how to support Nature! I wish that we could clone you! the world would be a better place !

[@N8N8-yh7ws]

Thank you Post 10 💕

The fast motion makes him look like a building sim pc set on triple arrows

[@db.mc2]

Thanks Post! 👊🏻👍🏻Appreciate you my friend 🙏🏻

[@susandevinney5867]

I use a filter outside and a pump inside the pond. The pump I put it in a cage I made with filter material around it. It worked very well

[@4Classie]

Would never question post's ability, style or process after I've watched most of his library, but I would have left the 30 gallon tank in place, putting the 300 gallon beside !

[@donaldevans5752]

Brilliant video post , nature is a lovely thing and you are helping so so much thank you .

[@cherylsibson2529]

Ponds have gotten better and more efficient due to solar power, great job!

A man of many talents. Great video.

[@juanstarnotip8122]

i really loved how this turned out last year, can't wait to see how this year goes!

[@bigdogtom55]

Thanks much Post!! Appreciate your vids!!

[@ARTWV]

That’s pretty cool. Makes me want to do one on my property.

[@RealBazman]

I loved this video! I don't know if you have ever considered it but maybe it could be a good idea to make something like a "night ambience video" at the new frog pond in the summer when they are thriving. Would be pretty nice to see and hear all the animals that live there. 8 hours of only animal sounds and peace. I hope you read it amd consider it. Anyways, great job!

[@post.10]

I'm making constant updates of this almost every day on my second channel post 10 vlogs

[@deenasmusicbox]

That was a really good video Post 10!! I enjoyed watching and learning about the tadpoles as well as how to make the pond fountain ⛲️…

[@jdubrich]

This is almost EXACTLY like what I want to do in my backyard! Thanks for the tutorial, post!

[@KJSound-xd1fm]

Awesome, looking forward to your upcoming episodes, don't forget that hostas don't like direct sun, they do better in the shade

[@post.10]

In my experience hostas do Fine in the sun, as long as they're not the type that are like yellow pigmented. The dark green ones and the striped ones seem to do awesome in the sun for me.

[@clashclay]

Good to see someone clean their tools properly after each use. They last longer that way! Great vid I watched until the end

[@AnyMajorDude-et2ub]

Love these long videos that are the complete story. Keep'em coming post10 Long live the frogs!! 🐸🐸🐸🐸

[@Bouzoukos]

0:50... It's 2024 Post 🤣😆 Great video as always my friend!!

[@patriciasutton8655]

Pond looks great! Just a suggestion, instead of hostas, could you try using plants native to the area? It would help with biodiversity.

[@Wolf6151]

I wish I had half as much energy as you have, great video. Thanks.

[@gracedawe1471]

Amazing Hard work ,bit your reap the rewards when frogs and insects establish themselves 😊

[@darinlogsdon3429]

Great video. Thank you.

[@MF-si6gn]

Post, what kinda plants do you keep referring to? Almost sounds like you are calling them pasta plants? Great video! Your beaver friends would be proud of the way you dug today!

[@post.10]

Hasta plants.

[@lloydreeves715]

Keep up with the good work love watching you on KZbin god bless

[@tdk5993]

Great video. New pond is going to be awesome!

[@petewg56]

Great video, you do nice work.., I would love to see more of these videos.... Thanks!

[@kwamedindavis9840]

Thank you for caring about frogs sir!!

[@DjStrucjah]

Next time you do a timelapse video you should dress up as the flash 😀

[@baconsoda]

Would it be worth putting a screen over the end of your overflow pipe? I had slugs crawl up a hose and it was a bit of an issue... they didn't just wash out.

[@post.10]

I'd be afraid of a clog at the very end forming. If anything does happen, I'll put the air compressor up to it

[@baconsoda]

Dead on... and thanks for taking the time to reply. I watch all your videos but seldom comment. I am in Ireland and you allow me to see places I would never see. Thank you Sir. Best Wishes, Brendan.

[@neil_down_south]

In the UK ponds should have ramps for hedgehogs to escape via. They like to drink from ponds but fall in! The spines make them reasonably buoyant but they struggle with steep sides.

[@darkwolf5531]

Super Cool pond

[@justsomeguy6474]

Looks great Post!

[@bluej511]

I just watched a guy in Crocs build a frog pond for an hour, and loved every moment lol. Gotta love that New England weather huh?

Kinda close to Conway NH

[@ddblairco]

thank you Post 10

[@Lavendeer201]

Yaaas! I remember cleaning a small public in-ground fountain because of all the leaves. The tadpoles in there were huge! I made sure to get all the gunk out, and all the tadpoles were all okay 👍

[@post.10]

Probably bullfrogs or green frogs. These tadpoles will never get that big There are wood frogs which aren't that big

[@GuntherRommel]

Nice video, Post.

[@desert-walker]

Very cool I was thinking of doing that myself😊😎🌵

[@TheOGDorothy]

You did such a great job!

[@nikola9629]

You should do metal detecting in your yard, it should be interesting.

[@dirtymuttmuddypaws5727]

You’ve got the same clogs as I have….and I live in Denmark 🇩🇰 awesome 😂. I bought mine bc of the color…I love yellow 💛 and I am really enjoying watching your videos, what you do..that could have been me 😁. Greetings.

[@susanneesbjornsson5193]

2024 not 2023 😂❤

[@takumi2023]

for the shiny metal pond why not just put the rocks inside the pond? this way it will provide crevices for the tadpoles a place to hide. you might want to layer the rocks so it's higher up the water column for those tadpoles that hang around the surface.

[@TheKerberos84]

You could put nets over it, to protect them from predators.

[@mgratk]

Or he could get a bigger predator.

[@LadyHeathersLair]

Looking forward to seeing the 🐸!

[@sonialoves444]

you should get a Bobcat this year

[@post.10]

I would get an actual mini excavator not a Bobcat, but my property is too wet. It would just make mud and I wouldn't use it often

[@ForTheBirbs]

Woo hoo! Tadpole time. The new pond looks great! Are there any fish still in the big pond?

[@post.10]

I honestly have no idea what happened to the fish. I planned on removing them in the spring, but they had disappeared. It's not what you may think, They didn't die from suffocation under the ice over the winter since they were there about a month ago. I'm thinking something went in the pond and got them. Maybe a bird. Maybe a blue heron came out of the swamp something

[@ForTheBirbs]

@post.10 Oh, wow. Something got a nice fish dinner then! Cheers

[@kevinthompson5827]

You might want to check your water supply because I have changed the water in my fish tank and put tap water in it and the fish would jump out and land on the floor. And maybe that is the reason your frogs won’t stay in there. So if you have a stream close by it might be better to use a small pump and use that water.

[@post.10]

The water in my trickling stream is the same water. That would be in my house because i'm using a well. It's not city water, so there's no chlorine

[@teresapetty]

I so enjoy your videos.

[@franciscodiaz5610]

You should make a playlist of all your frog pond videos because I can’t find the one where you put in the huge frog pond a couple years ago.
