My juvenile fire salamander is 8 months old and Since it was born I’ve been feeding it mainly on earthworms, is there any problem if it only eats earthworms? It seems fine to me, a little chubby I can tell.
 
Earthworms are a healthy choice.
 
Ok, but is there any problem if it eats ONLY that? Nothing else? That s all I can prpvide during winter
 
A fire salamander can live its whole life, happy and healthy; on a diet of earthworms. They provide all the nourishment they need.
 
Hi,
I am a biologist from Québec, who is passionate about herpetology in general. I am a teacher at a cegep in Laval, just north of Montreal. I did some reaserch in 1995 in Costa Rica on Dendrobates.
I have been doing aquarium, vivariums and paludarium since I was around 10 years old (over 40 years ago).
I am mostly interested in breeding darts frogs. I have presently 5 differents species at home.
I also have a female fire belly newt (cynops orientallis) and I would like to reproduce her. I am looking for a male and would like to either buy it or borrow it in extchange for babies the couple would produce or other arangement. I am willing to do some road to pick it up and bring it back.
I have never been in a forum not to sure how it works but I am happy to see people that are pasionate about amphibians.
My english is far from perfect I am a francophone.
Hope to get in touch we you soon.
Luc
