Usually they are either man made or modified by people to serve their purposes. That doesn't change the fact that it is an environment for animals to live in and adapt to.
Found salamander eggs in drainage creek, now what?

They are man made and the sallys are spotted.
I need to get some bb's two eggs came out of the mass and hatched, prematurely I think, but they are swimming and doing fine.
Should I keep a light overthem or put them in a dark place?
chefjamesscott, you have some awesome salamanders there! What size enclosure are they in? I was planning on raising the little buggers in a 20l when they get out of the larvey stage and then moving them to a bigger enclosure if needed.

Well, first of all. Regardless of state laws about collecting, you should have left them. Second, you should have checked your state laws before collecting. Most states require a license or permit to collect wild animals, especially eggs and juvenile animals (as you have collected).
Do not release them into a different area and do not keep them. Release all of them back to the original area where you found them.
Frankly, this was irresponsible and you should never have taken them in the first place. You should take responsibility for what you have done and return them to the original site of collection not anoter stream that you think would be good.

First, I read the entire thread and there were mixed opinions on whether the OP did/was doing the right thing.
Second, I made a constructive comment that was 100% pertinent to the thread.
Third, you should at least make yourself appear intelligent by using proper grammar and real words that are spelled correctly (For example instead of "realise" and "ur" use "realize" and "your". Also capitalizing the first word of each sentence is a fundamental concept that most first graders grasp, so that wouldn't hurt either.)
and finally, "frankly" you, sir, are a fool.
im a fool?
I cant spell and i dont feel like typing full words. Im sry, but i was under the impression that this is the internet where the shortening of words is almost expected.
If u read the whole thread, and we have moved on from the subject, why the heck did u state the same opinion as half the othere posts? Instead u were an a**. Have a good day, arguing with u is pointless. Nothing good will come from it. Ur a moron and me telling u that ur a moron is not gonna help u fix ur stupidity.
again, How bout some pics of the little ones? and any of where they were collected?

I used to find salamander eggs when I lived in Long Island,NY . I am pretty sure in most batches some would rot/go bad. The toad/frog egg jelly masses seemed to have a way higher rate of hatch than the salamanders.
They would look foul but others would come out. Its a good idea to put oxygen in water with air stone,etc it helps and if nothing else slightly moving water is good for them.
In truth I used to find them in non moving water but it was connected to stream thus you know it was high in oxygen so to add it in tank is great.
