I hatched eight and am keeping three. The female I collected back in 01' with an adult male and juvy. I lost the other two in 02' to that weird necrosis they get if they stay too damp too long (I had moved to a climate with higher humidity and didn't take that into account when watering). She did lay twelve eggs in 02' but I tried to incubate them on vermiculite and they just didn't stay damp enough. This time I used perlite and it worked great. I collected another pair and juvy this last winter, that female never appeared gravid. They're all from Monterey. Both females appear to be forming ova this season.

I also have a small colony from Oakland, none are adult yet though.

    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?
