i caught this little guy in central oklahoma, he happened to be in my backyard when i noticed him showing signs of neurological issues. i caught him and discovered a kink in his tail as well as a missing limb. i believe he is a little brown skink, and i’m going to keep and monitor him for a bit to see how he does :)

That's a Five-lined skink.
What sort of neurological issues?

he just can’t seem to walk properly, he twists around very frantically and rolls over when he tries to escape me

    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?
