I'm Chad, I live in west central Pennsylvania, and I am currently an undergrad majoring in environmental biology.
Two months ago I began raising (from eggs) a few Ambystoma macalatum and found this site while researching their needs. They are currently still in larvae form but a few appear to have begun to darken and gain weight.
I have also been collecting an "inventory" of the species found here in Jefferson and Clarion counties. So far I've recorded: Spotted, redback, allegheny mountain dusky, slimy, four-toed, spring, long-tailed.
 
Hi and welcome!
Environmental biology sounds interesting, best of luck with your course.
If you have any pictures of your A. maculatum, we'd love to see them (same goes for all your "inventory" :happy:

    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?
