I've been on this thread a lot, and I keep seeing how everyone goes looking for these guys. However none of you guys show pics of them in there natural habitat. I live up north in washington close to the mountains, and snuggled up in some woods. I've found exactly 1 individual in my area woods, a full grow adult between 7"-10" that I kept for a bit to observe "him" and let him go back where I found him.

Basicly what I'm trying to say is...can one of you guys post some pic of them so I can see what there habitat looks like? I really want to find a good spot to go on a herping trip for these guys :D

Thanks for your time,
Kevin

There were a few very rocky river beds and they were among the rocks all through the area.

Ah, what wonderful memories that is bringing back.

    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?
