Well I thought I'd get the ball rolling in this area of the forum.

So who am I?
I'm 29, Irish and I live in the US having moved here in September 2005. I've been interested in amphibians for about 25 years (yes, I can remember when I was 4!). Also, I'm one of the people who slaves over a hot computer to keep Caudata.org ticking over.

What do I keep?
Right now, nothing. I live in Texas and the A/C went out last June, so right now I'm worried about keeping any newts and salamanders in case the A/C goes out again.

Want to know more?
There are various links in my signature below.

I look forward to talking with you!

    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?
