Hi,

My newt has not been going in the water very often for a while now. Is this normal, do they become more terrestrial as they get older?

He seems fine otherwise, healthy appetite and personality. Although he doesn't move around all that much.

If this is normal, should i consider giving him more of a land area to move about on?

Thanks.

It's nice to stop by without an emergency for a change! :proud:

Thanks in advance.

I think that depends on what kind of newt you have. What kind is it?
 
yes i think it depends aswell i have 2 fire bellied newts and apparently they are always in the water but mine hardly ever do and i have had them for 7 years or so and there perfectly normal

    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?
