Easiest salamanders to breed

I was wondering what the easyest salamanders are to breed?

I have heard cynops species are easy, and that plurodeles watl are very easy. But from personal experience, if you keep triturus karelinii well fed and the temperature changes a couple of degrees for a month or two they will breed without any other work. (I had mine in a cool basement for a month and a half during a hot summer and they bred in the fall, and then last winter the temperature just naturally got a few degrees colder because we try to save money on the gas bills and they went into breeding dress, but I seperated them because I didn't want to be swamped with larvae!) So i don't know about easest, but it certainly is easy to breed them. I would also reccomend them because they are a larger species and I have found it is always easier to feed larger species as larvae and juvenlies. But plurodeles watl is even larger, except I have no experience with them, so I cannot give you advice as far as they are concerned.

haha, I just noticed your question says salamanders, and your user name is fire salamander. Yet, I only answered in terms of newts . . . sorry. I probably didn't give the answer you were looking for, but, what I said still holds true. I unfortunately have little experience keeping other types of salamanders though.

Newts are technically salamanders.

Yeah I'm not much of a newt person but I may be getting a pair of emproror newts soon!

I know you probably don´t want to hear it, and i already said something about it...but i trully think it´s very good advice to tell you to take things slowly. Learn to care for the salamander first..then get more stuff. If the shanjing you are going to get are WC then they are a very bad choice for a beginner...most do very badly.

It was never in any of my plans to get ANY salamanders or newts atleast for two months. At the reptile show a guy had some cb emporor newts for sale that I might get at the next show in 2 months. And about this post, I was just curious.
