Hello,
Roughly 20 years ago I was involved in the keeping and breeding of primarily European amphibians, Salamandra, Triturus, Pleorodeles, Bombina and others. Locally I was interested in field observation of San Francisco Bay Area reptile and amphibians, especially Dicamptodon ensatus that can be found larval stages in flowing streams north of San Francisco. Recently my interest was rekindled as I have be redoing my back yard and found several colonies of Batrachoseps attenuatus. I hope to start exploring the local habitats to see what changes have occurred since my absence from the hobby. I enjoy reading the variety of posts from members and hope to be able to contribute in the near future. Best to all, skm

    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?
