I decided to go herping today and managed to catch a Eurycea .... I read on the caresheets but I want to be sure of a few things
I have a large critter keeper holds about 3 gallons of water ... However I am concerned they could squeeze out of the top?
I know most animals need planted tanks but am I right to just mimick where I found it? It was just a slow moving stream where it was hiding under a log so I was thinking Of getting a large water dish and putting soil so it can come out and give it lots of underwater hides and approx 1/4 land 3/4 water.
I have never captured and kept an animal before and if he proves to not do well in captivity I will rerelease him ( I think its male I did not look close)
These are very very common in my area however they seem to be good at hiding LOL.
My other phibs are all CB so this is all new to me.
