Help please. Apologies if this is breaking the rules for the forum as this is my first posting.
Today I cleaned out the old bath we are using as a water trough for the farmers sheep. In the bottom was a single newt (pretty sure it's a smooth newt) about 35mm long.. It was obviously not going to survive there for long and couldn't get out, so I've put it in a fish tank with shade, some mud and a heap of stones. What should I do now? Take it to a pond? Dig my own pond?
