Interesting, i hadnt realised they were illegal to bring in.

I have heard that all European amphibs will require paperwork here in the UK in the near future, pressumably to prevent people brining them in illegally.

Back to the original post, very nice photos, great Salamandra.

thanks mate!

i have since got another male, so i now have two pairs. hope to be breeding them soon. also hope to have a load of 2 metre by 1 metre outdoor enclosures for various sals, them included, so hope to have them breeding soon. also going to try breeding tigers, as well as (hopefully) gigliolii, crespoi, more southern gallaica with red markings (i have a pair with no red) and all yellow berns.

will keep everyone posted,

Alex
