I caught a wild salamander today, and my son wanted to keep it. So I put it in a temporary habitat with some moist papertowel a water dish and a few rocks and some grass. It doesn't look to mad I caught it, it just constantly smiles at me. Hehe
Has anyone had success with keeping a wild salamander. What would be the best food for it. Tell me your experiences please. What sort of ground cover do you prefer?
We also didn't realize we should not handle it too much until I read about it on the internet. Is there anything I could get for its skin, just in case there is sort of skin infection on it in the future.
Also will they eat dead moths, I caught one, and the stupid thing flew in the water dish, so I took it out, the salamander came over and stepped on it.
