Do CFNs burrow?

I have a dry area in the tank where I put my CFNs. I've noticed that the soil in that area gets disturbed every morning. There are no other inhabitants in that tank except 7 CFNs. Is it possible that the CFNs burrow or disturb the soil looking for critters?

Re: Do Chinese Fire-bellied Newts burrow?

I saw one of the CFNs today today covered in soil, with just the head protruding out of the soil. Is this a normal behavior?

    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?
