CHAT ROOM- Ask the "Pros" Night

[Mark]

Did it look a little like the salamander in this photo? CalPhotos: Plethodon cinereus; Eastern Red-backed Salamander

Eurycea do have yellow/orange backs but I've never seen one with a bright blue belly. Red backed salamanders, Plethodon cinereus, occasionally have blue flecked bellies and yellowish backs. Not sure I'd describe it as bright blue however.

the chat room has been well populated at around midnight central time or so. There's been a whole assortment of shady characters of the marsupial persuasion and some hearty exchange of french vocabulary. Topics have ranged from creationism to how best to cook a baby. Newts get mentioned occasionally. No one has been banned yet but then we all instantly straighten up when one of the mods drops in, which is not very often.

bring some popcorn and your turkey baster!

Run, guys! We've been ratted out!

I KNEW she was just listening and taking notes and the whole "bad connection" thing was a scam!
