They have finally arrived. I have bought some Carnifexs Precisaments 4. Some of our (MI)seem particular. Can you tell me which sex they are and if they are well? Fhttp://www.caudata.org/forum/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=32

Hello enricolatiano,
looking at the pics you post seem to me to be excellent animals, congratulations! As for their sex, comparing the size of your hand seem to me that young animals have not reached sexual maturity, so they are difficult to sexing! However, if saying what its exact size and or age and post pics of their cloacae may be that any man can say what you want to know!
Good luck! :happy:
 
the first one and that of the other photos the others two are of mine other sample.do you know how to tell me the sex at least about the first one?
 
It is probably female... or it could be a male that has never been in breeding condition yet. Best of luck with them.
 
Yes. Those carnifex look very different from normal ones. Maybe those could be macedonicus?
Chip.
 
They look a heck of a lot lighter out of the water than mine. Mine appear black when out of water.
 
this is the her cloaca

As you were already told, juveniles are not accurately sexable (although you appear to have at least one female). Until they reach sexual maturity, the secondary sexual characteristics do not develop. What looks like a female can develop into a male.
Give them time, they grow fast and in a few months i´m sure they´ll be mature and their gender will become VERY obvious.

By the way, i do not think these are macedonicus...they look very much carnifex to me. The lightness of their colour can be caused by light, temperature, or simply because these come from a lighter blood line.
 
see the first pics is the same blood line of the male in the other pics

    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?
