Newest little addition

Hi all,
Yesturday we took in a little yellow spotted salamander.
He / She is approx 4 inches in length and is doing ok. He was found under a mat at my work by one of the kennel workers. I believe he was trying to burrow and was just to young to know any better. His front foot has a bit of damage, so we will see how he recovers.
I have yet to photograph him as he is already burrowed in his new habitat.
But here is a link where you can see pictures and find more info.

He is a great little guy
Thanks

Awesome! I kept one of those as a pet for years; bought it from a local pet shop. We also have them living wild around here, though I have only seen their larvae and eggs in the vernal pools. The egg masses are huge compared to the sals (about the size of a tennis ball in some cases!) and it is amazing to know that this egg mass came out of a few tiny sals!
Sal was an awesome pet. We fed him mainly crickets, but also some nightcrawler worms. One key point is to make sure that they stay pretty hydrated; this means moistening the soil they're in, cuz they do not like to go into actual water usually. But this is you I am talking to; I am sure you already researched them!

i remember when i was we little we used to catch those like when 1 was7,8, or 9
