Wine Coolers as Hibernation Chambers

Hey everyone, I've had this idea for a while now to use Wine Coolers as hibernation chambers for my salamanders. I don't trust mini fridges at all because my worms and other food died by freezing in them. When I think about putting my tigers in one of those, Im like "Hell no!"

Most wine coolers have manual or digital thermostats that range from 45-60 degrees. Why the hell would people want to freeze their wine? They don't! So I figure if you just pay attention to the temp, the salamanders won't freeze either. This seems to be a preferable range for hibernation, right?

I was talking to Mike_g on AIM and he found this site with lots of great smaller models.

    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?
