Bait Worms?? Do they just look like standard earth worms? Smaller? Larger? Same colour? Nutritional value?

think the ones i got are just normal "earth" garden worms
"they have no stripes" IE: tiger worms
i usually cut em in half or my axies just spit them out if there too big

Yep, I think bait worms are safe. Been feeding mine them from day one. But I am finding they go on and off them every now and then. I think I need to renew my farm. Cutting them in half also makes it easier for the axie to swallow.

    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?
