hi! im new to owning a salamander, it was a xmas present for my son, but the whole family loves this little guy!
my mom bought this for my son, she got it at the mall. it came in a tiny cage and still had its gills, it was very thin. i dont know anything about salamanders but after doing some research i fed him feeder fish, he ate a ton, he started changing, he is now in a land only tank with a large soaking bowl, he hasnt eaten since we switched the tank around, i tried giving him crickets, but i read that sometimes they dont eat while or right after they change? anyway, i think he is doing okay...i have him in soil, it looks dry in the pic but i keep it moist, that was right after we changed him over. here are some pics
