Hello everyone! :) My names Christopher, I'm a 21 year old musician from Massachusetts interested in becoming a herptologist/wildlife biologist one day. I earn my money managing a restaurant and I spend most of my spare time making music. I am currently interested in the raising reptiles and amphibians and would like to continue gathering different animal species. I currently own 2 fire bellied newts, an 8 year old Ball Python and 2 different dogs. I am intending on purchasing a White's Tree Frog next. I would also like to get some more newts in the future, possibly breed them as not many pet stores around where I am have available newts. Any information on Newts, Schooling and anything really would be appreciated :) Thanks and have a wonderful day!

    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?
