hello, could you tell me how can i hibernate my half year old salamandra? the winter is coming and i have heard that i have to hibernate it..thanx for answer.filip
 
I would suggest... just put it in the coldest place in the house. Salamanders do not have a true "hibernation". They just slow down as the temperature goes down. It is healthy for them to have a cool period in winter.
 
and how long? since which month should i started to put down the temperature, could you write me something more? thanx
 
I cannot give you a "recipe" answer. All I can say is that I try to follow nature as much as possible. In the autumn, I allow temperatures to decrease with the weather, and shorten the hours of illumination to equal the outdoors.
 
and do you know any method how to make low the temperature. i have no cold room in my flat

    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?
