I like the first picture! His hands remind me of Nosferatu's (a vampire from a movie in the 20's) hands.
 
Hi,

yes, they have pretty long fingers - but it remindes me rather to E.T. than to a vampire (especially as I sleep in the same room) :)

Best Greetings,

Kamil
 
Hehe, E.T.

I just saw Nosferatu the other day so I guess it was kinda stuck in my head.
 
hehe, those fingers are neat.

And what wonderful shots you have taken!
 
Great pics. I just love helveticus...they may not be the best looking ones but i think they´ve got something. Best of lucks with the new generations.

    Dear All, I would appreciate some help identifying P. waltl disease and treatment. We received newts from Europe early November and a few maybe 3/70 had what it looked like lesions under the legs- at that time we thought maybe it was the stress of travel- now we think they probably had "red leg syndrome" (see picture). However a few weeks later other newts started to develop skin lesions (picture enclosed). The sender recommended to use sulfamerazine and we have treated them 2x and we are not sure they are all recovering. Does anyone have any experience with P. waltl diseases and could give some input on this? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

    sorry I am having a hard time trying to upload the pictures- I have them saved on my hard drive... any suggestions-the prompts here are not allowing for downloads that way as far as I can tell. Thanks
