I have experience keeping herps, but am new to salamanders and do not have the capacity at my current residence to control and maintain low temps in any particular room. The cool areas of the house, however, do not exceed 70 degrees. I am looking to purchase a species that is primarily terrestrial and tolerant of slightly higher temperatures. I want to be able to give it a happy and healthy existence, so I feel like I should avoid species that require delicate and experienced care. I was hoping someone might be able to provide:
suggestions as to which species would be best for a beginner
any specific and necessary care information
and finally, where I might procure said species . . . hopefully as a captive bred specimen (reading some of the forums it seems as though many have had success breeding a great variety of species)
I know this is asking a lot, but I figured this would be a great place to begin.
Thanks,
Mike
