Hi all! :)

Well I put this message , that you tell us some more advice the experts, and by the way, I teach these beautiful urodeles , owned by a friend ;)

It is a partner, and in fact we believe that the female is pregnant , because this quite fat and hard .... The male goes but when pulverize the terrarium , or watered , but the female is in her hiding place will be quite some time ... pregnant? you believe? :p

If anyone can advise would be great ^^

It keeps in a terrarium of a fully terrestrial 80L , but with a small water part , not very deep. Hiding places, some natural plant logs, moss, etc .. jejeje

I hope you like the pictures! :D

Beautiful salamanders, yes it's a pair,

they are according to me A.mavortium melanostictum,

Tiger salamanders can be fat, it's difficult to tell if a female is "pregnant",

they breed in water after a cool resting at low temperatures...

They tend to imprint on the ponds they hatch in and return to breed there every year, It is a beautiful pair though!

I am hoping that my group of tigers will breed this year. I have kept them in an outdoor enclosure now for around six months.
http://www.caudata.org/forum/f1173-...vortium-spp-etc/90898-ambystoma-tigrinum.html

The females are looking quite gravid now. I have seen one of the males in the water over the last week, unfortunately he is not one of the group that I want to breed so he has now been moved into his own enclosure for a little while.

This is a post written by the breeder of my animals,
