Oh, dude, mosquitoes and frogs lay a bunch of eggs because they're playing the numbers game. Like, not all of them are gonna make it, so they're just like, "Let's throw a bunch out there and hope for the best." It's like a little gamble they're taking, you know? Plus, they're just trying to keep their species going strong, so they're like, "Let's make a whole bunch of mini-mes and see who survives."
Some species often lay excessive amounts of eggs because it is not uncommon for the majority of these eggs to not survive into development. Laying large numbers of eggs increases the chances of some of them hatching and surviving into adulthood.
It is because most of the eggs laid by the female mosquitoes do not hatch or develop to become mosquitoes.So they have to lay a lot of eggs in order to produce young ones via balance the Ecosystem.
i don't know about toads, but frogs can do up to 1k at a time
at any time When the have mated and are fully-grown...... My question is where do tree frogs lay their eggs?During mating season, which is generally at spring time.
Frogs lay a large number of eggs at a time, typically ranging from a few hundred to several thousand. The exact number varies depending on the species of frog. It is not accurate to say that frogs are born, as they hatch from eggs as tadpoles and undergo metamorphosis into adult frogs.
A frog usually lays its eggs in a jelly-like substance which holds the eggs in a tight cluster. A frog usually lays over 100 to 200 eggs at a time.
Most frogs lay thousands of eggs when they spawn but there are a few species that only have a few at a time.
Mosquitoes lay eggs (after sucking the blood of other animals) when it is warm and wet out, which is usually during the spring time, during a wet summer, or even during the fall. Standing water is a must for mosquitoes in order to be able to have their eggs hatch into larvae, go into pupae stage and then turn into adults.
A female frog can lay thousands of eggs at once, but not all will hatch into tadpoles. The number of tadpoles that survive and develop into adult frogs will vary based on factors like environmental conditions and predation.
Tree frogs general do not lay as many eggs as larger frogs. such as the bull frog, which can lay as many as 25,000 eggs. For example, the green tree frog only lays about 400 eggs. The number will vary from species to species.
You did not say which species of frog so I will tell you of one particular frog. The southern cricket frog of South-eastern borth America can lay as many as 250 in ditches and ponds. Most species of frogs can lay hundreds of eggs at a time.
Frogs can lay hundreds to thousands of eggs at a time, depending on the species. Each of these eggs hatches into a tadpole, so frogs can potentially have numerous tadpoles from a single clutch of eggs.
