I have a Notophthalmus viridescens originally taken from a pond in Michigan, USA. What would you feel a newly metamorphosed eft newt of this species? I have fed new Ambystoma metamorphs small crickets, but I think even small crickets might be too big for a newly formed eft. (The subspecies is N. viridescens lousianensis, Midland Newt.)



Any ideas?
 
I ship springtails and dwarf isopods. Check my add, pm, or email me. shrommj@ptd.net

    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?
