Hello!

I've been a member of the site for quite a while now, but haven't ever posted. Just lurked in the shadows to read all the other posts. :)

I have been a herpetologist and wildlife biologist for 13 years. I've studied/researched all kinds of herps in the field around the world. Some of my favorite projects have involved hellbenders, green iguanas, rattlesnakes, Komodo dragons, estuarine crocodiles, reticulated pythons, horned lizards, and frogs galore!

I also volunteer as a rehabber and provide permanent homes for several rescue animals... not just herps, but they are, of course, my favorites! I currently have 2 large iguanas, several turtles, African dwarf frogs, and axolotls.

Just wanted to say hello and start being a bit more active on the forums! :)
 
wildlife biologist! fun fun.

Welcome would love to see some pictures you accumulated while working with the wildlife you mentioned and of course your pets :)

    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?
