I currently have a number of captive hatched (raised from wild caught eggs) Ambystoma opacum metamorphs. Animals hatched on 12-14-08, and have just recently come out of the water. Morphs are 2.5-3" in length and doing well so far. They are starting to darken already, and adult coloration should arrive sometime later this year, varying between individuals.
Animals are now available for shipping, and are eating well on small worms, fruit flies, and assorted invertebrates.
Here's your chance to get your hands on opacum with minimal environmental impact. For more on captive hatching, please see our website here:

$25 each for 4-5 animals.
$24 each for 6-9 animals.

I also have some Cynops ensicauda popei and orientalis left over from last year. C. orientalis are $10 each, while the C. e. popei are $20 each. They're around a year old.

I do occasionally accept trades in other salamanders, so that may be an option as well.
