Lovely species!
 
They look great. I have Plethodon cinereus everywhere around my home, both color phases. I haven't found any yet this year though.
 
They are great!!Very beautiful sals! It would be very interesting if you posted some pics of their tank too!
 
WOW!!! Great pics. They look so real... what a camera. It would be awesome to see the environment they live in as well!
 
nice pics, are those flies on your red back in the first pic?
 
Hi,
thanks for the replies!

Atm. these all live en plastic containers! Nothing special!

And yes it is flies (Drosophila melanogaster), nice size for the Plethodons!
 
I think around here, we tend to take redbacks for granted. They're so prevalent that I tend to overlook them. Same with Blue-spotted sals. They're just everywhere.

    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.
