The 2011 Caudata.org calendar photo competition is now officially open!

Each year we run a competition to find 13 wonderful photos to adorn the pages of the caudata.org calendar. Calendars are sold via the Caudata.org store to hobbyists throughout the world. Axolotl fans – you have a dedicated calendar competition here:http://www.caudata.org/forum/f46-be...-photo-competition-2011-axolotl-calendar.html

The rules are very simple:
1) The image must be of a newt or salamander.
2) The image must be a minimum of 2000 x 1500 pixels, although the larger the better. Most modern digital cameras produce much larger original images.
3) You must be the owner of the photo. You will retain the copyright. By entering you give Caudata.org permission to use the image on the calendar.
4) You may enter a maximum of 5 images.

How to enter:
It’s simple – submit your photos to the following email address photocomp@caudata.org. The closing date for entries is the 31st October 2010.

Images that meet the above requirements will appear in this thread for all to enjoy. Please do not post images directly to this thread.

Previous years winners can be viewed in the gallery: 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 (still on sale).

Best of luck to all who enter!

    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?
