    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I am thrilled to offer offsprings from my beautiful pair of aneides lugubris. This is my second year breeding them, act fast if you are interested!

Some care info:
I keep all my salamanders in my basement in New York, where the summer temperature averages around 71°F and drops to 55°F in the winter. Humidity ranges from about 85% in the summer to 60% in the winter. My adult pair lives in a 10-gallon tank, with ¾ of the lid covered in plastic wrap during the warmer months to maintain higher humidity. In the colder months, I remove the wrap to expose half of the lid. I mist the tank twice a week in summer and twice a month in winter. The substrate is a mix of coconut fiber, pine chips, leaf litter, twigs, and sphagnum moss, filling nearly half the tank. A thick layer of oak leaves is spread on top, and I use oak bark from my backyard as hides, stacking the pieces to create varying humidity levels. Their diet includes mostly dusted crickets, with occasional waxworms, houseflies, and earthworms.

This year, the eggs hatched around late August
I kept the babies in the same enclosure as the adults for them to exchange beneficial bacteria(Thanks Tim Herman). I feed them dusted melanogaster fruit flies 3 times a week. The babies have grown quite a bit since hatching and they should be ready to take 1/4 crickets in another month or so. In one of the photos, you can see one of last year's juveniles with the mother in the middle and this year's baby on the bottom.

I am offering the babies $125 each plus shipping, you can contact me at [email protected] or text 9177898488 for a faster reply. Thank You!

I just got a few of these and they are amazing. They run down the food and grab it by shooting their tongues out, that's just a couple hours after unboxing them. if you don't get these and you're into salamanders, you're crazy imo. Most fun I've had in years watching them eat this afternoon.
 
I got one, he's great! Very bold and eats well and doesn't hide away out of sight. Get one before they are gone if you have any interest in amphibians. Such an interesting species and so rarely offered for sale captive bred!
