Snaky is in my left sleeve browsing the site with me! Excuse my righthanded typing :P
I have put a container of salamanders in the fridge, and they seem to be quite---- umm.. 'still'.. I think they do hibernate [admittedly havent researches 'manders much] but will either plain move em to the freezer, or maybe do like in Alan Francis' fish-jello recipe, and put them into 'suspended-jello-animation' who knows, maybe they'll come back to life when I un-suspend them, but the jello will prevent freezerburn too AFAIK.. Will let you'se know how it goes -- but must go, got a silly snakie trying to wiggle into my chair cushions :O lol, take care back soon!
