I am hatching some spotted salamanders (sixteen so far have hatched) and I was wondering how long does it take for them to go through metamorphosis and how long does is take for them to reach adulthood from freshly hatched larvae? There doesn't seem to be enough advice on here for spotteds. Also someone on this forum said they will live longer if put through a dormant stage during the winter, how long would I fridge 'em for?
Thanks in advance!!!

-_- I like to do research until I die, I've already researched this on here but can't find this piece of info. sometimes you have to go by personal experience to get the information you want but I asked to get an answer.
 
I'm not an expert but I have read that if water conditions are right they can be in the water for anywhere from 2 months to 18
