Why infertile eggs

Hi everyone,
my pleuros used to mate and lay hundreds of eggs but not even one hatched.They all went mouldy.This happened for several times in 6 months.Has anyone had the same problem?Could the animals be sterile,maybe for excessive inbreeding?

Hi Francesco!
I have several Pleurodeles and every time they bred this year, all the eggs were infertile...only ONE (!!!) hatched in about 300 eggs!
bye

    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?
