I've been lurking now and then on this lovely forum for a while now, ever since I got my axolotl. I love lotls! Mine is a darker wildtype named Lightbulb, and he's such a joy. I finally made an account, so I figured I'd introduce myself.

I just graduation high school and I'm from from southern New England, near the Connecticut/Massachusetts border. I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember and spent a lot of my childhood (and adolescence... And probably adulthood when I get there) exploring the woods catching and releasing all sorts of critters, mostly frogs, toads, and red efts but occasionally a snake or spotted salamander if I'm lucky. I also am happy to care for my goldendoodle Maggie, guinea pig Squeakette, a small bunch of Madagascar hissing cockroaches and dubia cockroaches.

Currently I'm raising some rescue peeper tadpoles and some salamander larvae from a almost completely dried up vernal pool that was about to be bulldozed. :( I'll probably be posting pictures of the larvae soon, as I'm trying to figure out what species they are.

Anyway, nice to meet you all!
 
Welcome! Post some pics on the axolotl forum when you can so we can see him!

    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?
