Northwestern Salamanders - How soon do they feed after hatching?

[JasonT]

I have a few eggs that hatched a few days ago - have been trying to feed them baby brine shrimp, but they do not appear to be feeding.

It has been 5 days since they have hatched - should I be concerned?

Thanks!

Well, they may not have used up all of their yolk sack yet. So give it another day or two and then see if they eat.

Thanks - it turns out they appeared to start eating just yesterday, about 5 days after hatching.

It looks like the Northwestern ones might start eating later after hatching than other typical breeds.
