yeah how come if both species r friendly u stil shouldnt? like im sure its advised not to keep cats n dogs together but i have n they got on fine and they were introduced at seperate times

no. There are toxins in their skin and axies are aggressive toward other caudates. Dogs and cats usually arent locked together in a crate. they're free to roam the house and avoid each other if they want to. When you put two animals together in a small tank, there's bound to be problems.

even with species that share the same habitat and come in contact with eachother shouldnot be mixed, the reson being as kaysie brought up the fact that they are in an enclosed space, the only way that this could be accomplished is with a big tank, and when i say big i mean BIG!

i heard about the albino tiger that was bred with an axie to get the albino gene.......if they can breed does that mean they could live together too??

This happened one time, in 1890's. Just because the animals bred does not mean they can live together. Donkeys and horses can breed, but most people do not house them together because they're not compatible. Donkeys are mean and horses are expensive.

Just say no to species mixing!

Mikki, you're just biased. But then, everyone who owns an axie thinks that they're great.

    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?
