Hi Ashley!
I love salamanders! Where my husband and I used to live we found salamanders. I don’t think we have found one at this house, or anywhere for years.

Hi Shannon!
I know you are one of those mamas, too! You have quite the menagerie of pets!

Hi Puna!
Yes! My boy actually did do a really thorough job of cleaning the tank today! Hector is our pet for another day, at least!
