Just when i finally lose the newbie reputation on e-bay i become another on here!!! just a quick introduction as i feel i will be using this site quite often! I'm Paula and have just adopted my first axie, aka Bertie Big Balls (hope i'm not offending any one by choice of name). What i thought was gonna be a simple addition has, after studying your site,quickly become a somewhat daunting challenge! As i have quickly bonded with Bertie, I obviously wish the best for him and this is where you lovely people come in! I'm feeling like a fish out of water (no pun intended) and believe i will be using you knowlegable lot as a regular resource! Hope you all don't mind too much. Bertie is counting on you!P.S i have some knowledge in hangover cures and am willing to trade!! thanks

    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?
