Greetings, all!

Hello everyone! My name is J, and while I currently only have a Bearded Dragon, I do plan on having some salamanders soon. I'm thinking Ambystomids. I love them. Anyway, as I said, my name is J, I'm 19 and I'm a college student. I'm studying biology (mainly herpetology). Nice to meet you all, and feel free to PM me!

Welcome, J, glad to have you aboard. I'm not sure where "Chucktown" is, but if you have Ambystomatids locally, I would suggest that obtaining your own animal in a responsible manner is almost always better (both environmentally and for getting a healthy one) than buying wild-caught animals from pet shops or online vendors.

Charleston, SC. We have Marbled Sals, Spotted Sals, Tigers, etc. I plan on getting my own, since I have plenty living near my house. But I won't get the animals until I'm 110% satisfied with my set-up. I want an absolutely stunning naturalistic set-up. I'll post pics when I get started building!

Lucky you, lots of locals! I'd recommend finding juveniles, if you can. Less impact on the breeding population, and it's gratifying to watch them grow.
