"Reptiles and Amphibians of Europe (Princeton Field Guides)" By E. Nicholas Arnold. Is it a good book?

I'm not familiar with the Princeton edition- presuming it's the same as the Collins one, then yes, it is very good.

It's basically the best European herp field guide. Obviously it doesn't go into as much detail on the urodele species as Griffiths' book does.

There are two editions (the first one was Arnold & Burton)- I summarised some of the differences in a short review here some time ago.

    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?
