My second species to lay eggs this season is *drumroll*....Taricha granulosa...*end drumroll*. So far, 1 egg, but the female appears to have more and was in the process of laying more. The eggs appear fertile.

So, the eggs are still coming and the first larvae hatched out on January 1st. I have 4 larvae and about 20-30 eggs at this time.

So Aaron...
Do you have room for all those new newts? Maybe you'll be selling a few to your friends on Caudata.org! *G*

..I've actually been looking for granulosa (or torosa) that have been captive bred, so I know they haven't been mistreated as much as the occasional one that comes through the pet store...

Congratulations and the very best of luck!

What did they lay the eggs on?
I'm eager for my own Taricha whatever-they-are to lay eggs. The pair I showed you pics of before have since been joined by another, which seems to be a female. Anyway, a belated congrats!

    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?
