I am new to this site, but not to salamanders. I am a senior in high school and plan on going to school in the aims of becoming a zoo keeper. I have kept of 80 different species of animals (not including fish and inverts.). I currently have red eared sliders, spotted salamanders, eastern newts, a bearded dragon, hinge back tortoise, leopard gecko, fire bellied toads, birds, dogs, and many other animals.
 
It sounds like you are a zookeeper already! Welcome.
 
How do you have time for that many animals while your in school? I dont have near that many and with homework, my animals, watching some TV, my nights are filled.
 
Hey, welcome to the site. I have 4 different kinds of animals myself, I have 1 Garter Snake, 8 FBN, 2 Clawed Frogs, and 1 leopard gecko

    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?
