I was fortunate enough to acquire these CB 2007 terrestris which are totally thrilling to me. There are 8 in the group but one evaded being photographed.

All I can say is "WOW".
 
Seeing those pics makes me want to explore Salamandra again.

Oh my what beautiful salamandras, might I ask how much you acquired them for?
 
Just wow!!!
Those look simply incredible. I wish there was some way to keep those legally here...such impressive animals make me so jealous...:S
 
Great creatures!
But their color is hitting my eyes ;) I prefer yellow salamanders.
 
So it worked out after all Travis? Did you get any other subspecies/species in the same batch?

John,

It did work out to get some...I also got CB 2006 S. corsica and CB 2008 S. s. longirostris
 
Good to hear it. Got any photos of the corsica?
 
If only I had a nice cool basement to put some in.
 
Wow! Those are amazing.
 
That's what a normal terrestris looks like if it is left in the sun too long ;).
 
Stunning animals!
 
Holy diver! good looking salamanders, realy love that colour!

Regards/Tomas

John,

I do have photos of the corsica and will try to post them later this week. I just got back from herping the trans-pecos and a bogged down with things to do.

WOW! Just seen this thread, they are truely awesome sals!
 
They ARE beautiful! I like the fact that they all have individual markings, so you can tell them apart. Ahh...<wistful sigh> I wish mine were distinct. = )

I like to think that ALL caudates are distinct but with some you just need to look REALLY closely!! ;)

    Had a question that I just want to be sure of. My marbled newt is a little over a year old and has started to develop and I noticed that he is starting to swell a little below his abdomen. I guess I’d like to know if they are his testes or if I need to be concerned.

    Hello!!! I'm new to this website and idk how to ask a proper question on the designated spot yet, so I'll ask here, I'm a first time Axolotl owner, and my dad used to run an aquarium store, anyways... Orca, my Axolotl, seems to loose parts of her toes on one limb from time to time, I can't seem to find the problem. Tempature is well, she doesn't seem to have any infections or anything, though. And I'm not sure if I'll be able to find a vet in Brazil for amphibians that are in a reasonable distance to drive without stressing Orca out too much

    Hello, I’m hoping for some advice please. Our Axolotl is about 7 months old. Till now no problem. Eating, growing and happy. He’s simply stopped eating. Everything looks fine, his gills look healthy and no apparent signs of sickness. He just swims past the pellets and bloodworm like he can’t smell it. I don’t think it’s a blockage either. Any ideas and suggestions for treatment would be much appreciated. Thank you!

    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.
