Hi all, I'm not very active in this forum at the time of writing but if I read many topics as I love urodele.
Now I have a group of 5 "Hypselotriton orientalis" and need help from the most experienced to know its sex.
I have some photos of the kiddies ...
Greetings!

To me, all except the 2nd one look female (ignoring the out of water photos), but better pictures of a side view would help.
I would also get some chopped worm into them to fatten them up a little bit
 
I agree with Aaron. In the second picture the cloaca looks swollen. Also the tail looks shorter and more compressed. The other pictures look like females as far as I can tell.

    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?
