Great idea

I have an idea for all newt keepers in towns where there is no live food-selling pet stores. if there was a way to get the worms and bugs in your backyards nutritional and sterilized, it would be easier to dig up worms from you garden. i was wondering if one of you guys could e-mail something to one of the many laboratories in europe and north america. i would do it, but you guys have more authority.

a good way to attract worms is to water a spot frequently where you want to dig, or lay down a tarp or newspaper and keep it very moist. This attracts worms, slugs, various other bugs.

    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?
