Used to eat fine before she started changing , any help plz , just refuses all food , also seems to be alot more skiddish & scared , is this normal?? :(
 
Yes, both are normal. Give it time to complete the process...it´s a very demanding and physiologically intensive transition.
 
Totally normal! Both of my tiger salamanders did this during their metamorphosis. I think each of them went off feed for nearly a month.
 
Perfectly normal, just make sure you have it properly set up. It may take a couple of weeks to before it will eat

    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?
