Trout Worm
how much should you feed a tiger salamander?
He is about 10 inches and is still skinny like he was at the pet store. ive had him for about 5+ months and he has hardly grown, if at all. I feed him 1/2 trout worm every 2-3 days, occasionally with calcium.
10 CENTIMETERS NOT INCHHES!!!!SORRY
first part is from first website below, second part from 2nd website.
Feeding
Tiger salamanders have a healthy appetite, and should not be overfed as they will become obese.
Larva will take aquatic invertebrates such as Daphnia and brine shrimp, insects, small fish, and worms.
The adults can be fed a selection of feeder insects such as crickets, earthworms, and wax worms, a selection of wild caught insects (be sure the area collected from is not sprayed with pesticides) and can be offered the occasional pinkie mouse. Due to their size and strength, they shouldn't be housed with smaller salamanders.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Feeding Adults
The temperature of the enclosure will determine the frequency of feeding the salamander. If the temperature is 65°F (18.3°C) or cooler then the salamander may be fed once a week. At temperatures over 65°F (18.3°C), the salamander will need to be fed at least twice a week. The amount of food offered will also differ depending upon the temperature, with more food items being offered at warmer temperatures. Adult tiger salamanders will readily eat crickets, freshly shed mealworms, earthworms, caterpillars (e.g., wax worms, silk moth larvae), and pinky mice. Other than pinkies or wax worms, a good rule of thumb is to offer the salamander as much as it can eat in several hours or overnight. With pinkies or wax worms, these can be offered as an occasional treat or to fatten up a thin salamander, but because these food items contain high levels of fat, they should not be used as a steady diet. As a final caution, remove all uneaten crickets after 24 hours, as the crickets will bite and potentially harm or kill the salamander if left in the enclosure too long.
