Hi,
I just read some threads about Newts from Pet Shops dying at what Jennifer calls "Pet Shop Newt Syndrome" (I thinks that's a really good expression). Whe know this in Germany from Cynops, Paramesotriton and others bought in pet shops. But it is very common to Notophthalmus viridescens too which are sold very often in Germany. Even experienced newt keepers fail to keep them for a longer term. I was wondering if those species are easier to keep for people in the us, as the newts sold over there do not have to travel so far to get to the pet stores.
Greetings
Fabian
