I'm trying out with silkworms for the first time, using a group of some juvenile C.ensicauda (from Tokashiki Island) as guinea pigs. Two of them attacked the worms but spit them out, while the other two woofed them down.

Here is one of them that took to the worms:

This one spit the worm out:

My Onychodactylus japonicus also ate silkworm, after giving the worm a vigorous shaking, as is typical of this species

    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?
