I was wondering if anyone here has ever seen an online store where larval tiger salamanders can be purchased? I started looking around fish stores and reptile/amphibian stores several months ago in hopes to find one but no luck. firebellies and Paddletails seem to be the only thing anyone ever carries. I read on here that they can be found at some baitstores. I asked at a few bait shops and sporting goods stores, they had no idea what I was talking about. I guess it seems like they are more commonly found in bait shops in the south? I found one bait store online that sells them individually, they were all out though. The only other online bait shop I found them at had a minimum purchase of 25. I dunno what I'd do with 25! At that store, you'd end up paying $50 plus shipping...
Aaaah, I'm getting frusterated! I've gone salamander searching a few times in damp areas, I guess around here a lot of people find them in their window wells. I don't think anyone living by the ponds would by the "I'm just snooping around your windows cause I'm looking for salamanders" story! I'd love a tiger salamander period, but a larval one would just be the best! The search continues, but I thought I'd see if anyone had some tips on tracking these guys down! I don't think the DNR would be very happy if I bought a load of them from another state and let them free here. Don't want to spread anything in the salamander community... But gosh I was seriously considering ordering from that website last night!
I'm rambling now, sorry
