I just got my first pet that wasnt a small animal. I bought a tiger salamander from my local pet store and everything is fine (I think)
Im not sure he is a tiger (thats what the store said) but here is what I have so far:
5.5 gal tank - Getting a 20 gal soon
Forest bed substrate - stuff the store used
Saphium moss (sp?)
I spray the tank 2x a day
Feed him 4 - 6 crickets a day
water dish that never has water (he keeps doin somethin to it)
A hiding place
70 degrees f
Since I got him he seems to have gotten fatter. Im worried he is boated and the temp is wrong. In the winter my room is freezing and summer its boiling. My bro had a tiger and it died cause he was to hot but my bro is into reptiles so he has alot of heat lamps on. Any way to keep the temp at a constant during the seasons. Ive read over the posts and it says he hibernates, the book I got doesnt say anything about that and he isnt hibernating, he never uses his hiding spots
