A really nice little field guide

In case anyone likes to go out in the field and finds field guides useful... I just purchased a really nice one for the Pacific Northwest. It is Amphibians of Oregon, Washington and British Columbia, by Corkran and Thoms. Published by Lone Pine Publishing. I own multiple field guides since many contain different information. This one uses easy to read charts to maximize info, and contains everything+ that is in all my others combined (I'm talking field guides, not Petranka). It has multiple photo's of each stage for each species, and really clear, complete, habitat and density info to go along with the distribution maps. As well as... all kinds of good stuff! All in 173 pages with a plasticized cover that slips in a side pocket. Just thought I'd share

Does it have any info on Taricha granulosa mazamae or any pics?

It has some wonderful pictures of eggs, hatchlings, larva and 2 adult photos. Lots identification and habitat info. It is not specific about subspecies. I'd love to know more about subspecies, there is a very large population in a public garden near my house.

    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?
