I'm looking for keepers of Micro Pipa (dwarf Surinam toads) in the U.S. Pipa arrabali, Pipa aspera, Pipa carvalhoi, Pipa myersi, and Pipa Parva. I want to discuss care and am interested in obtaining some.
 
Hi!

Have a look at www.groups.yahoo.com/group/xfrogs
xfrogs specializes in "..... frogs/toads from the four primitive superfamilies with an initial focus on the more obscure forms of Surinam (Pipa) and firebellied (Bombina) Toads and clawd frogs (Xenopus/Silurana) and their allies among the
Pipidea and Discoglossoidea groups......."
Their discussionforum is really worth a visit.

Han,
I think Michael is a already a regular at Xfrogs and he has been working on getting some micro pipa imported for people on the group.Do you keep any Micro pipa?

Hi Travis and Han,
That's correct. I'm a regular on Xfrogs. it's an interesting group. Their are several people working on trying to import micro Pipas to the U.S.

Hello,
I am also interested in micro-pipas? Anyone know if anyone is breeding them in the US?

Also, how do you sign up for the xfrogs yahoo list?

Thank you,
Brandon

    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?
