Greets from Akron!

[Nphec]

Hello all,
Just wanted to say hi, I'm very glad to of found this forum and that the salamander/newt community has it's own big forum and not some sub forum on a reptile site or something! Hehe. Anyways, I have just recently gotten back into the hobby. My girlfriend started bugging me months ago about getting some sort of pet. And I ultimately decided a little fire belly newt would be a good choice. I had some as a kid and remember them being very easy to care for. But now as an adult I kinda found a new appreciation for caring for these little guys, did a bunch more research and set out to make the best posible habitat for one. The book I bought has taught me a great deal but nothing will compare to the knowledge on this forum. I've had tons of pets over the years like turtles, chameleons, geckos, iguanas, so on and so forth. But each species is it's own and I'm glad I studied up as much as possible because so far so good with our newt. Before I go on and on here i'll cut myself off lol. So on behalf of my gf and me HI!

This past fall I went through Akron and stopped at the zoo. It was awesome, I loved the remodeling of it. You're lucky to have such a great zoo!

Thanks for reminding me actually, we're actually gonna go to the zoo for valentines day. Well the Cleveland one, only cause we have a free night at a hotel near there. But I defo plan on going to the Akron zoo when the weather breaks. I'm glad you enjoyed at least some of your time in Akron, I think most people don't haha!
