It could be. But at that size, it could also be some other Ambystoma.

The only salamanders in my area are tigers, blue spotted, spotted, eastern newt, and the four toed salamander.

Tiger salamanders, blue spotted salamanders, and spotted salamanders all belong to the genus Ambystoma. Jen is saying that at this size, it is hard to tell which of those it could be. You may have better luck with identification after it morphs.

How long until it morphs? I know that tiger salamanders can take up to a year to morph but what about the other species.

 

[Kaysie]

Probably at least a couple months.

They are now bigger and i am almost possitive they are tigers.
