What is your favorite Salamandra salamandra subspecies? Gigliolli? Salamandra? Fatuosa? Which 1 might it be?
 
Terrestris i like the most. Unfortunataly their are not allowed to keep here in the Netherlands:(
 
This is a great poll but no surprise that gigliolli and alfredschmitdi are top although i think s.salamandra are underated.

It figures it would be gigliolli since I can't find any.
 
I have to say that S. s. alfredschmitdi have to be my favorite with S. s. werneri coming in a close second.
 
I voted fastuosa-I really like the cool stripe pattern.
2nd would be gallaica, because there the ones I own!:tongue:
 
I had a tough time choosing as i have nearly all of them, i chose morenica, but werneri are so nice too, they are all so different personality-wise, which is something i didnt expect to notice, with gigliolli being the shyest and my almanzoris being the boldest.

Hands down, no doubt, Alfredschmidti, the golden ones!
They are real awesome stunners,...:D

And a huge shame we can´t have them, or nearly any other salamandra specie, here!:(
 
gigliolii is a stunner, with terrestris being my close second
 
where are the salamandra corsica ??
 
That´s a different species, siskin. This post is about Salamandra salamandra and all its subspecies, therefore none of the other species in the genus Salamandra are included.
 
I dont like Alfredschmidti as much because of its rather dull color. I chose gigliolii because of its stunning visual appearance.

Not all Alfredschmidti are dull they have a very varied coloration from a brown/bronze to a solid yellow

I agree(but I still like fastuosa better). Here's one particularly fascinating image:

Is the giglliolii easyer to keep than corsica ?
Regard siskin.
 
I have always been a S. salamandra fan. Though I would love to have a set of Salamandra Ianzai. All black, how cool.

    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?
