Hey,
Now that Ted has returned from his week long vacation in the tank ornament, I was wondering If i could get some help sexing them.
I took 3 pictures of each, hopefully someone on here can give me a hint to their sex. :)

First up is Ted Newtgent himself:

This little guy is Super-Freak-The-Sex-Machine (or just Super, for short. lol):

Thank you for any help :)
I don't know how old they are, they were given to me in April, hmm lol

I´d say the second one is a male ...the first one is harder to define...could be a female or a young male...dunno :S
Anyway i´m no expert at all so this is just a noob opinion...
 
I am not so great at sexing newts myself, but I do think the second one is male like Rodrigo already stated. Due to the long toes of the first, it may be male as well. They do look to be in good shape to me, and very glad that your little ornament loving newt came out - pretty good outcome for a week of being AWOL.

thanks for the opinions guys, nothing wrong with ted being a bit androgenous :p
yeah he's looking pretty good for being gone for so long i reckon. :)

    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?
