i recently obtained 2 eastern red backed salamanders from a friend and i was wondering how to care. i know they are terrestrial and breath through skin and need moisture. i have them in a 1 gal milk container with moist bed a beast. i need to know basic care like temps set ups food cleaning just basic care. i read they eat small earth worms and insects so i think i'm gonna get some redworms and small mealies maybe some pinhead crickets.
thanks

    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?
