Hi,

I've been on this site for a long time as I have been planning to get axies for years, I have read a lot here but haven't posted before. I have just bought my first eggs after my 20 gallon tank became empty, RIP Myrtle the razorback musk turtle :(

I have 19 eggs in a 3.5l plastic box at the moment at about 18 degrees, I don't know if they're all going to hatch or how long it will take from now. Some of them are still round and a couple are a bit cloudy so not sure if they are viable. One is almost fully formed, I got a nice close up of it (it's the long one at the bottom right on the other pic). I'm sure I will have lots of questions as they grow so please be patient with me :happy:

Hi djp81 and welcome to the forum. :happy:
Sorry to hear about Myrtle, razorback musk turtles are great. I haven't had one, but I always stop by their tank at the LFS whenever I visit.
Best of luck with your eggs, great to see the one in the second picture forming, and please keep us posted on progress (with lots of pictures). :D

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
