Hi there:
I ordered an adult female fire salamander last summer, and still have her today in a 20-gallon woodland environment. She is VERY intelligent. I may sound silly, but I really am sure that she knows me. She stares at me everytime I come into the room, and follows me with her eyes. She also comes out and stomps around, until I feed her. Sometimes she even seems bored, until I let her crawl around on a moistened tabletop. Then she stares up at everyone and follows them arround the table.
I think she knows she is being admired. She seems to "show off" for everyone. Anyway, I just ordered a male for her. My question is, is a 20-gallon big enough for a pair? Also, how would I go about breeding them?
Seriously, these are VERY intelligent creatures. There is something going on in that little brain of hers. That's why I think she should live and interact with another of her own kind. Thanks for any help.
