i have recently got 2 fire bellied newts and one of them had a sort of hump on its back , sort of like a hunch back, does this mean that he/she is pregnant or is it a disformaty or illness.??????:confused: Thank you for you time
 
Could you get a picture? There can be a slight "hump" caused by the scapulas if an animal is underweight, but a true hump is certainly not normal.
 
ill try and get a picture on for tomorro :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?
