| they were all in one place, hangin' in the rainwater collected in a dog water bowl... brought them inside for a little observation.... wondering what tehy eat? Tried worms, not interested (probably the whole captivity thing)... I think they're northwestern salamandars. All appear to be juveniles... no more than 4 inches long each.

| Well, salamanders can eat crickets, maybe some chopped earth worms. Meal worms might not be a good idea pictures would help in identification

| You could try blood worms. I have very little experience with salamanders but the few I have seen seemed to have a deep love for blood worms.

| Well, I got an email back from the Washington Herp Atlas, and they're going to include my find in next years maps and stuff. She said it was very interesting that I found them, as they normally spend most of their lives underground. She said she's guessing these are juveniles that were just dispersing. I'll see if they're interested in a cricket, then let them go today. Pretty cool little critters though!

Yes they are, if you can re-locate them to a nice little pond or water area. You might establish a breeding spot.
