Hi Caudata members,
My name is Mark, my 7yr old daughter is fascinated with reptiles and amphibians, so we decided to do some research and figured out we wanted to get a semi aquatic newt. We have put together an enclosure and are currently conditioning it. We will probably start out with a pair of Cynops Orientalis, this is not our first choice but the only species we can find locally here in Southern California. We would prefer C. Pyrrhogaster, but we may have to wait until Jen has some more available. We are looking forward to getting our new friends. I'll post some pics when we get them home.
Regards,
Mark & Alexa
