Schools almost finished and i will finally have some time to get out and enjoy the outdoors instead of being cooped up inside doing homework.

Anyways, i was wondering if anyone has any knowlege of areas in northern California (preferrably in the Sacramento/San Francisco area) where i can observe some wild newts and salamanders. I'm beginning to think they don't exist up here as i have been out and about a few times and found nothing. I really just want to get out there and see them in their natural home.

Any ideas?? Thanks!
 
Bummer, either there are not many people from California here, or there just are not many places to go to see wild newts. Guess i'll just have to keep looking.
 
We don't allow people to publicly discuss specific locations where salamanders are found. There is too much potential for the information to be abused. If anyone has any suggestions for you, they should contact you by PM.
 
Any of the ravines in the national forests or state parks, west of the crest, should still be good.

    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?
