Okay, I'm on my way to Petsmart right now. I'm planning on selling the newly hatched ones for about $1 each. I think that's a pretty good price as I've seen some go for up to $10.
Thanks, Shelby H.

I would definitely make sure that it is legal to take things from the wild and redistribute them for money in your state before you do anything
 
I created a new photo album called "My New Aquarium/Supplies" showing all the things I got from Petsmart. They stopped selling fruit flies but I managed to get some other good stuff. I was afriaid I'd spend to much so I didn't buy any food products, but I will get some the next time I get paid. For now I'll just catch my own food for them.

Well technicly the babies were BORN in captivity. Do they still count as "wild animals"?:confused: I wasn't able to find anything on Alabama's laws as far as selling wild animals. Does anyone else have anything?
 
Now that they're about 4 days old their tails have changed completely and I'm thinking they're actually tadpoles. : ( If they are I will still sell them at my local farmers market for $1 each (assuming it's legal in AL) *sigh* I guess I'll just make the best of it.
 
It should be pretty easy to tell. Salamander larvae are long and skinny with external gills visible. Frog larvae are rounded and have no visible gills.
