Tadpoles are not likely to survive. That is the reason frogs lay so many eggs. By laying that many eggs, they increase the odds that a few will survive to adulthood.

If you build a pond in your bacckyard will tadpoles come to it?

That depends in part on your geography. If you are close to other bodies of water that are inhabited by frogs or toads, you are likely to find tadpoles in your pond. To have tadpoles in your pond, it must either be frequented by frogs or toads or have the eggs transported to the pond in some other way. The presence of tadpoles in a pond also depends on the pond itself. Shallow water on the margins of the pond with good vegetative cover provides favorable conditions for tadpoles. The water quality in the pond must also be conducive to aquatic life for tadpoles to survive.
