I got a group of four tiny cb Pyxicephalus adspersus
last March. They are really starting to get some size on them. Looks like I've got 2.2. You can clearly see some differences in head shape as well as body size. I am hoping to try breeding them maybe next year though. I've done some estivating with a group in the past and I think I've got the kinks worked out. Hopefully this time next year I'll have some great amplexus or egg photos.

    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?
