Hi All!

My name is Erica and I have been raising Chinese Firebelly newts (Cynops orientalis) for about eight years. I live in Southern California where the temperature is pretty warm year round, and I have had much success in breeding without inducing hibernation or using any other artificial temperature cues.

I am interested in keeping some different species of salamander soon and am looking forward to reading about all the personal experiences others on this site have had with their salamanders. See you in the forums!
 
Wow, that's great. I know many of us have had c. orientalis for a long time without them ever breeding (for example, me!). Welcome!
 
Thank you for the welcome posts! And thank you Jennewt for the link to Dana. It seems we are in the same boat.

    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?
