Book recommendation

Yes! I have had this book for a while now; it was selling very cheaply on eBay at one point. It has some of the best photographs I have ever seen. I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that I bought it for myself, not for my kids!

Here is another book recommendation (less relevant to caudates, but probably of interest to some folks here):

"The Earth Moved: On the Remarkable Achievements of Earthworms" by Amy Stewart

This is a book I wish I had written. It's very well done, and a good read for anyone interested in earthworms, gardening, or ecology. It's also a bit of a biography of Charles Darwin, who was evidently very interested in worms.

dk eyewitness also has an amphibian video-its very much for kids but its nice to see them in motion-it is slightly confusing since it names them by common names -so the 'siberian' salamander they show is actually a Ranadon, but its cool too see the male in action gaurding the egg sac

    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?
