I guess this would be in response to the 5 Juvie N. kasieri auction that Alan Cann recently put up.

Are there any breeders in the United States that would be willing to do the same (place a group of newts/salamanders on the auction block to the benefit of Caudata.org)? I think that there would be a positive response by the members and the proceeds might benefit the overall improvement of the site itself.

Does anyone other than myself find that to be a good idea?
 
For the more rare hard to find species I think it would be great!
 
Auctions by USA members of Caudata.org have occurred in the past. The best way to encourage such a thing is to try it yourself. Even if you can only auction off some Cynops orientalis it may encourage the person with Echinotriton to auction off some offspring.

    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?
