Yes, i have some salamanders that have shed their skin. It comes off and sometimes you can see it floating in or on top of the water. It will sometimes even have the same shape as the salamander that it came off of, with little hands and feet. Supposedly salamanders will eat their skin, as it is a high source of protein. If you try and take it out of the water it is like a big blog of slimy snot :P
