Hi, I squired a pair of Ambystoma talpoideum from a reptile show recently. They are doing great, eating crickets, earthworms, and other insects. They are a definite pair as they are so obviously sexually dimorphic with the males visual organs present. I live in CT and would like to build an outdoor enclosure with the impossible hope that they would breed eventually, I know, a dream, but I'd like to try anyway. Any advice on the enclosure or this species would be appreciated... I don't think they hibernate since they are more of a Southeastern species but not sure of that either...thanks

    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?
