Ponyo is SO STINKING ADORABLE, I love him 🥰
He loves you too!!! 💕💕💕
I just wanted to add that they actually live a lot longer than that in captivity! In the wild they’ve been seen to live 15 years and in captivity it’s actually 20-25 or possibly even more! Which makes me so happy because I always tell ppl that my tiger salamander Ernie is my soul mate haha so excited to have him with me until I’m like 50! 😆
This is PERFECT! It's just the video i needed right now. I promised my husband I wouldn't get any more REPTILES this year. I know he cant say no to that derpy worm with legs ❤ Very inspiring, i will be deep diving into research and talking to all my local exotic animal sanctuaries to make sure there isn't one that needs a home before trying to source one 😊
That is fantastic! I love the way you think. I hope you can get one 💕
I just met one while walking in my local park in Cheyenne WY. I thought it was an escaped gecko at first. Neat little critter, it waddled off into the grass and camouflaged VERY well in the grass at 10pm (even with park trail lights).
lol I live in Cheyenne, just found one in my back yard this year. Hes awesome!
I could have sworn there was a little black shadow creature behind you peeking out and moving his tiny black hand and makings gestures. Then I realized it was your reflection on the tank behind you. Oh, and great video on your experience with a Tiger Salamander too. Very helpful.
Dude. I NEED to get a tiger salamander. They're too cool
Right?! They are one of the coolest amphibians! 💕
@@reptiliangarden I love my toads and frogs, but tiger salamanders are so bold and social, they're just incredible!
Wonderful video! I love tiger salamanders and I wanted one when I was little (still kinda do). I always loved their yellow spots and their tails. What an amazing little creature!
Researching how to keep my morphed axolotl is what brought me to this channel two years ago. I now know they require slightly different conditions to Tiger salamanders but this is where I started.
This was right on the money. I've had tiger salamanders before and now want to get more.
I’m not having trouble finding them. I’m having trouble finding the right color! -__-
I’d die for Ponyo ❤️ Also, the color of your shirt looks so stunning on you!
Pros, a low fuss, non aggressive, abstract, and often muddy amphibian that is a really nice size. Such awesome little critters for sure. Your barred tiger salamander is a pretty normal size at 12-14 inches in length. They are huge in captivity because they are well fed and have better access to a water source such as a water dish. Cons, they should be handled with care and only scooped up sometimes, clean hands is a must but overall they are durable amphibians. They can also bite your finger thinking it is food but luckily they don't hurt very much.
Ponyo is otherworldly gorgeous!😍
Spot on. My tiger salamander will just sit there and watch you. Every time I open up his container he comes rushing out and will clime out for food. Kinda insane. Can you imagine if these guys were like the size of a bearded dragon. They would be little monsters lol. I mean they already are 😂
Omg I’d be so intimidated then! It’s so funny how much this little creature startles me 🤣
Tiger salamanders will also grab your finger if you wag it in front of their face, luckily they don't hurt that badly.
Perfect timing! I’ve been looking into tiger salamanders!
Great video! I've already started planning out my dream amphibian room and these guys are definitely on the list.
Wow Tricia these are some awesome pros & cons for tiger salamanders I love it. :)
Over the years I’ve found 6 in my back yard they fell into the pony and couldn’t get out lol they were so tiny they were baby’s
Why are your animals SO ADORABLE!!!!!! You must just take REALLY good care of them, well i KNOW you take REALLY GREAT care of them!!!! thank you for everything! Also could you do a bearded dragon vid i am getting my first beardie really soon and i watched all your care videos and they help a lot!!!
me: learning to care for tiger salamanders...
trisha: "con #1: they're hard to find."
me: "sweet!" (finds one in yard... covered in chicken feathers with chickens excitedly chasing the clump of feathers).
trisha: "...whatever you do, don't get one from the wild."
me: "doh."
great vid. my guy is a derpy hunter too. I've watched him bite at the air as a dubia roach runs underneath him
I definitely got Those guys on my list just need to do re research
My tiger salamander sometimes would lunge at the glass when people walked by 🤣 apparently people are food too
In my country ( holland ) , you can find them in ditches and motes but its illigal now but they are easy to buy here . They come with a license so you can proof you bought them legal :D
It definitely depends on the tiger salamander. We keep our TS in a 40 gal and he utilizes the whole thing. He's one of my most active animals. Make sure to put around 4 to 5 inches of substrate because they like to tunnel. He also is VERY food aggressive! He bites me all the time and it doesn't hurt at all. 😅
3:40 I currently have to handle my baby every day . My cat fell into the tank and dragged him out he sustained some pretty good injuries so I have to give them antibiotics for a week. Spent an hour last night and he’s possibly going to be really high maintenance if he sustained brain damage which were 60% sure he did 🥺
Omg sorry to hear that :(
@@MeTrabi66 hey to let you know she ended up getting stitches and I named her Frankenstein or Frankie for short she’s doing really well she only as a few scars ps. Thanks
@@stitchbro9615 glad he’s doin well now
They. Are. Cute.
Not first but always here 🌱🐢
Thank you so much Naim! 💕💕💕💕
Mine comes out to roam around quite a bit. when I feed it worms I put them in a clam shell so it's easier for them to see and catch so now he begs for food by walking to the glass then back to the shell and stares at me like he's disappointed that there's no food for him even if he ate already
I love the name Ponyo!
I found one when moving a trailer home for a guy he got hurt so I’ve been nursing him he’s beautiful for sure
tiger salamanders are so cute! the derpier the animal, the more i love it 💚
Lol I picked one off the ground they’re native to Colorado and when it rains in the summer and fall they’ll come out of prairie dog holes
Rainforest junky, is not actually the breeder, they buy them from the breeder and resell them.
I didn’t know this! Thanks for sharing!
Cute!
What size/ age do you recommend moving a baby crestie into into a bigger terrarium? I just got a baby and was wondering how long I should keep it in the small critter box.
cool
i dont even really like amphibians but im still gonna watch this because
Thanks for the video! How much do they cost?
I'm interested in Tiger Salamanders because none of my animals are derpy enough.
They are the derpiest for sure 🤣
For me after having some it's just-
Pro- Beautiful and pretty easy to keep animal you can build a visually pleasing enclosure for.
Con- You almost never see that animal. You functionally have a very pretty glass box in which feeders disappear.
This is how it is with my blue Hawaiian day gecko and all my mourning geckos. I feed a pretty enclosure every other day and never see anything unless I turn lights on at night or sneak a peak during a very quiet moment at the house. Not very rewarding pets to never get to see them. It’s how I imaging keeping a sand boa would be
Hi, so I'm adopting a Fire Salamander soon. I'm getting the enclosure ready now. I'm debating a full glass aquarium or a 2 door enclosure like you salamander is in. Are you able to keep the humility in that 2 door enclosure you have your baby in?
Hello! I recently came across a tiger salamander that seem to be in a dangerous situation. I helped him and want to return him to the wild but want to make sure he’s also safe because it’s mid October and it’s getting very cold. Will he have enough time to find a borough?
I'm gonna throw out a con here that they do require cooler temperatures which can definitely be a pain depending on where you live.
True! And very important! Thank you for sharing!
7:28 what was that..? 👀😳
Question can they travel like in a car with you In a smaller inclosier because I travel alot
My lil guy will not eat anything that isn't moving and will NOT eat a blue horned worm 😭 I thought he'd love it cuz it's big and wiggly but NOPE. shunned completely hahaha
They do all have different personalities cuz mine utilizes his entire tank and tries to climb the moss backdrop to escape 😅
I caught my tiger salamander Freckles
Mine is so picky she only eats crickets I want a treat system so if she is good or made a new burrow I want to reword her but all she eats is crickets
I feel lowkey discouraged with mine. I’ve had him for about a year and a half and he WILL NOT come out to eat on his own. 😭 I have to dig him up every time to make him eat. But He always seems very interested when I offer him food and he SCARFS it down. But he never comes up on his own. 😭😤 Maybe one day? Maybe I need a front opening/closing enclosure? I have no idea.
I just envy all the other owners that have good eaters. I feel like a bad mom or like I’m doing something wrong with him. 😭
Awwww I’m so sorry. Each one is so unique and they each have their own personalities. I feel a front opening glass door may help him learn to come to you for food. It’s what does it for mine and the others I’ve seen!
Mine doesn't like grass happers
Can I use a old ten gallon fish tank with a screen top? SOMEONE PLEASE RESPOND
No. They’re big at 12-14 inches. Too big for a 10 gallon, a 40 gallon breeder tank would be best.
i wonder what would Ponyo say if he could talk??? Lol
Omg that is the biggest question in life. 😂
5:59 so i am basically ponyo 👍
😂😂😂
😊🦎🦎🦎🦎
Minor feedback: the tiger salamander is definitely poisonous. It's not going to hurt you, but they make themselves taste extremely bad to predators and mess up their senses.
The lighting in the video creates a very odd looking effect. At some points in the video it looks like you have a black hand mocking you behind your back.
They are poisonous.
