Answer
To: Stephanie

   I don't mean to say this to you..I am being honest here. I really don't know about baby salmander and what to feed it.. It seems that tadpoles do grow pretty fast in one week or two. But other than that. Once it reach to one year old. It will eat baby crickets or very small mealworms. But I think you should go to this website and see how to raise a baby salmanders.
It's: www.salmander.com this should help you out more than I can on this question. I hope this helps.
 Step 1: Get some dirt that's earth dirt
 Step 2: Salmander tadpoles start off eating little insects and bugs.
 step 3: Always keep them moist..Like when it rains
 step 4: Salmander will reach ther length at 1" - 4".
 Sorry for the late respond back.
