Two weeks ago I picked up four Salamandra s. terrestris at a show in South Carolina. They are of somewhat varying sizes however all are small. I have been keeping them in a large plastic "critter carrier" with a paper towel substrate and inverted plastic saucers (with holes cut) for shelter. They have all been feeding well on earthworm chunks and insects. I have to change the paper towels frequently because of the large amount of urine put out. So far however I have only found two stools. Is this normal for this species? I have decided that if they all continue to do well (all appear to have good weight) that I am going to bypass parasite treatment however I do not want to take any chances. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
