Ichthyophis in europe

Guest
Hi all
I do belong to the circle of caecilian-keepers now, having some Ichthyophis sp..
Those animals are great as you know, behaviour isn't far from some of my skinks and all of my snakes, so this didn't cause any problems.
but because of problems, that may come up when trying to breed, thinking of needs for further males or whatever, cause some might "not love" each other,
i'm very interested in having contact to keepers of "I.kohtaoensis-like", animals.
Greets,
Philipp

So, met A.Kupfer in Gersfeld, who will help to identify those animals, cause they might come from Malaysia and could even belong to another genus,....
So far,
Philipp

    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?
