Hello, I am both new to this site, and new to caring for a Salamander.
I have a small pond on my property that has resently become home to what appears to be two different species of Salamanders. When I was out there checking them out I found one of the Salamanders (who I have taken to calling Toothless) at the surface of the water. I discovered his right arm has been injured. It looks a bit swollen compared to his other arm, and is always laying limply back at it's side, and one of the fingers is green.
I have been trying to read up on Salamanders online, and finally discovered this site.
I'm concerned over the little guy. Does anyone know what is going on with him? And if so is there anything I can do?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
P.S. If anyone could tell me what kind of species of Salamander he is that would be fantastic too.
