What species is it? Salamanders not only hibernate but some also aestivate if it’s too hot and dry. As with herpinman, some of my salamanders I don’t see from one month to another. Sometimes I rely on secondary clues to their health including poop in the water or trampled substrate. A thorough misting or even just.changing the water seems to get them out on an evening. I’ve come to associate certain species and certain individuals withn a species with a given behaviour and so I tend not to worry or feel the need to dig them up.
