Hello

I have one juvenile Ssg (the largest of my group, strangely) that barely disturbed not eat and shake, then it is impossible to provide food.
I thought to close it inside a box with a little moss and several earthworms for 2-3 days.
or are undecided whether leave to stay.
 
Thats the best idea for a timid fire sal, provide plenty of food and leave him in the dark to find it himself.Don't provide crickets as these will bite your salamander.
 
I am with Ian on this, my youngsters took a long time to settle down and eat, but now they eat really well, follow Ians advice and you wont go far wrong.
