Axolotl Grant- so happy <IMG SRC="http://www.caudata.org/forum/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0>

I hope this is the right section to put this under, but I need some help. After battling the biology dept and making a report for the deplorable condition of their 5 axies, I was awarded a rehousing grant (glad the investigative work paid off, haha)! The problem is that it is not a long term solution. I'm graduating next year and there is no one willing to take care of the animals ("We are an institution, not a zoo") and so I was wondering if there was any REPUTABLE axie keepers in Western New York that could take on 4 very large axolotls (2 boys, 2 girls) anytime in the next 2 yrs (hopefully sooner than later). I took on one of them, but between my own and that one I don't have the room or resources so I just wanted to see if there was anyone out there.

I'll try and get pictures up later of them- be warned though that they don't look the best, but would be ever appreciative of the love!

It's great that they were willing to give a grant to let you improve their living condition.

    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?
