Hi all, Im a person, I hail from the crazyness that is Florida and I have been fascinated by amphibians and reptiles ever since I developed the fine motor skills to catch them. I'm interested in most animals and I used to fill my days with Animal Planet and Discovery Channel before I had to be a grownup and work. I do not own any amphibians as of yet but I was doing research in hopes of getting a newt and came across this wonderful site a few days ago. I'm now confident in my basic newt knowledge and am planning to purchase one from the classified ads here and using the forums as a resource for raising the little guy.
