Hello all,
I have an unidentified larvae - posted a larvae identification thread, but after I posted decent pictures, no-one replied - and am curious as to what I should expect from it.
I've had it about two and a half months - just caught in a pond in North Carolina. (pictures are posted below...)
Assuming it's a spotted salamander, which were the guesses given to me before via a very poor quality picture, when should I expect it to loose it's gills and such? Will it change colors first?
This is my first larvae, so I'm curious as to the process that it changes into an adult.
Thanks for any help!
**NOTE - it's a little darker in color now.
