Hmm, thought I posted this already. Guess not. Just noticed after looking at a recent photo of my CA tiger, that she's losing her spots. I know their patterns can change through their lifetime, just thought it was curious.

isn't it illegal to own a California Tiger salamander?

Id becarfull posting this on the internet....
 
The salamander is, I think, about 7 yrs in captivity. Got it off a friend after he left the state last year. I figure it's better than releasing it into the wild, but who knows. I figure age may be a factor in the spot loss

I have an Eastern tiger that was initially black with yellow spots. Then the spots became olive, now six years later he is almost entirely olive with a few (very few) broken black lines....belly was and still is yellow with grey blotches.

    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?
