My Newt Feeding Video

Taking out an aquatic newt to feed it on land....mmmm...not the best idea.
I don´t know if you did this just for the video or if it is the usual way. It´s definitely stressing for the newt, and it´s soooo much easier to just feed them in the water...
The newt looks good though, good luck :)
 
That's too cute! That really gives me hope that handfeeding's IS possible if needed for these newts!
 
At first I thought that feeding using tweezers was the only way to feed red wigglers and earthworms. However, I realized that if you clean if off then drop it in the water, they will find it eventually. I found this out by accident, so now I just throw 5 worsm in there instead of standing there for 45 minutes hand feeding them

    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?
