I had to relocate some breeding newts this year and this male looked unusual to me. Maybe it's not all that uncommon, but I was just wondering if anyone else has seen one with so many orange spots?

He certainly is a beauty! I think he does have a few more spots than average, but I don't think it's that unusual. I've seen a few like this.
 
Yes that is a very nice newt you got there! I don't believe its unusual either

Nice newt:D
Here's another example, this one an N. v. dorsalis with extra spots.
