In The Sims 4, Frogs can be caught and bred to make new types. Finding these little guys is guaranteed when you search a log or water pump (as in Forgotten Grotto). However, they can also be found in ponds, but this requires you to queue up multiple actions in order to catch the slippery critters. I'd do it with the game speed on at least 2, and continually click to add new Search for Frogs interactions with the Pond.
While Frogs were initially set at a rather low value, a patch changed them to be more valuable, particularly for the rarer breeds. You can easily get a few hundred Simoleons by catching frogs for several hours. In this Guide, I'll teach you all you need to know about collecting Frogs with a little help from Forum Member Kresh, who graciously provided information on Frog Breeding Mechanics.

Where to find Frogs
Skip the logs. You may have some luck here and there, but overall scouring each neighborhood for logs is just too time consuming. The best way to do it is to use the three ponds in the game. I first hit up the park in Willow Creek and got a good portion of my collection, probably about half. Afteward, a trip to Sylvan Glade provided some new types of Frogs. After several runs, my Frog collection was missing Spotted Heart, Heartsurfer, Dirtwhirl, Whirlyflower, and the Bullseye frog. Since I hadn't been there, I headed to Oasis Springs park and found all the missing ones.
To me, this provided proof that there are frogs common to all ponds, but different types may be found in each. If you are missing a particular frog, you can breed them to complete your collection. Read more on that below the list of Frogs.
Mechanics of Combining Frogs
As mentioned before, the following information comes from Forum Member Kresh. I'm grateful for this, as it may have taken me some time to figure out myself. As Kresh explained, each Frog has two genes. One type, and one attribute. The table below shows what a frog's type will be when its type has a particular attribute.
Types are like the frog's basic type - they may be Leaf, Dirt, Eggplant, Heart, or Sunflower. An attribute of 'None' produces a frog of that generic type, ("Sunflower Frog", or "Dirt Frog") while spotted, striped, surf, and whirl are other attributes. Since each frog has two variables, you have a 25% chance of getting the desired Frog when combining them. So, take the following example:
A regular Dirt Frog has the 'Type' Dirt and the Attribute 'None'. Combining this with a Spotted Eggplant frog, Eggplant 'Type' and Spotted 'Attribute' may give you either A regular Eggplant Frog, a regular Dirt Frog, a Spotted Dirt Frog or a Spotted Eggplant frog. Gathering numerous frogs and combining intelligently can help you to finish your Frog Collection and get a decorative plaque in the mail. So, if you are missing a Spotted Eggplant Frog, get any kind of Spotted Frog and any type of Eggplant frog and combine them until you get lucky!
Why not spend time at the pond to catch frogs? Your sim may not catch a frog every time but they can try endlessly as the pond ALWAYS have frogs! I got all but three rare frogs in less than two sim days!
You really have to spend the entire day at a pond and constantly and continuously spam queue the action. It seems to go better if your sim is focused so 'Study Moves' on a chess table for a quick way to get focused. Different parks seem to give different frogs too, so move between Oasis Creek and Willow Creek parks as the day progresses. Don't be surprised if it takes you 2-3 days of constant frog catching spam-grind to complete collection. And remember you can also breed frogs together as you do this to try to get the types you are missing.
From what I have discovered, that sounds about right. But your pairing might be different if your Dirt was the Breed frog with Whirlyflower versus your Whirlyflower being the Breed frog with Dirt. Not all the time, many times the breeding order does matter.
For colors, dirt is brown with yellow markings, leaf is green with black markings, sunflower is yellow with purple markings, heart is red with yellow markings, and eggplant is purple with blue markings. For patterns, "none" means the frog's back is the main color and it's legs are the marking color, striped is straight stripes along the body, spotted is spots, surf is wavy stripes meeting in the middle of the back to make a violin pattern, and whirl is one big spiral in the middle of the back.
Newly bred frogs inherit the color and pattern of one of their parents, so if you're looking for a specific color and pattern that you don't have, you need to breed a frog with the color you want with a frog with the pattern you want, and at best you have only a 25% chance of getting the combination you're seeking.
UPDATE: Sorry, for the "none" pattern, it turns out the legs aren't actually the marking color (leaf frogs have black markings, but their legs are always blue). No markings means just that, the frog's body is just the basic color, just this basic color is often a different color for the legs than for the rest of the body.
The info in frog breeding is incomplete as you can get any any frog along the Species line and Attribute column. I was getting Sunflower frogs when breeding Striped Dirt and Heart Frogs and while trying for Striped Leaf and Spotted Dirt I got a Dirt Whirl.

There is a new platform tool in The Sims 4. There's also a new Sentiments system, but it'll take some time to create a guide to that. Players can also use rental lots in any world now by changing lot types of builds in manage worlds.
I now have a guide page to Tiny Living Stuff where you can learn about Murphy Beds, the new death, as well as the lot bonuses you'll receive if you manage to keep the size of your lot down with this new pack's Tiny Home Lot Type.
This was inspired by a series, "Let's Play a Super Sim" in which I start at toddler and gradually take on the major bonuses. Here's a link to each part for people who are interested. You can also see the Let's Play as a Playlist on Youtube.
The Sims 4 Discover University has been announced for November 15 for PC/Mac and December 17 for Xbox and Playstation 4 consoles. Click to learn more about the pack, see my summary of the livestream or read our FAQs below.
Sadly it's proven to be an incomplete fix in my game, and I still have plants reverting to dirt piles at 7 AM on the dot, 7 days after being planted initially - I have encountered this "one sim-week" bug on several saves and have not found a reliable workaround.
When it's not this bug it's another. I keep changing my gameplay to avoid one particular bug, only to keep bumping into new ones or... let's call it odd gameplay design. Say bye to plants and go live in the city? Get ready for stalky neighbors.
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.83.24.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Discover University, Get Famous, Cats & Dogs, City Living, Get Together, Get to Work, Dream Home Decorator, Parenthood, Dine Out, Spa Day, Outdoor Retreat, Tiny Living, Laundry Day, Fitness, Bowling Night, Vintage Glamour, Movie Hangout, Perfect Patio, Holiday Celebration Pack, Grim's Ghoulish Guitar
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Grow crops in the game
What happens when the bug occurs? When my sims does an interaction with full-grown plants (i.e., water, fertilize, spray for bugs), the plant resets to a dirt pile.
What do you expect to see? I expect to see the plants unchanged and stay in its current growth form and just be watered/fertilized/sprayed for bugs.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No
This has been a re-occurring issue in my gameplay for a year now and I just have chosen to ignore it and hoped that it would've been fixed by now, but it hasn't. My full grown lemon trees, plantain trees, apple trees, etc. keep getting reset to a dirt pile after my sim is just watering them or doing normal tasks. I always have to exit the game and restart so that I don't lose progress on my plants. It's really annoying to play like this. I don't have the Seasons Pack if that answers anyone's question regarding that.
