Well guys, my Danube Crested Newts were kind enough to pop out a few eggs last year. Well one of them was actually healthy and it happened to be the one I was documenting. But after it hatched I thought why stop there! So I kept taking pictures and it has been almost a year now. Granted the pictures got fewer and further apart once the newt morphed but not much happened in between those times. So on January 12th, 2015, the final picture will be taken and the video will be posted on this thread. So Lets do a countdown because I am so damn excited about this!

Kudos to you for sticking with it! I was going to do a similar thing with Ambystoma gracile, but I didn't have enough patience to keep taking pictures...
Will you post the video to your YouTube also?

I am excited for the pictures!
 
Well I will post it to youtube and then link it here.

Almost there! ( wait, are you going to post the photos on 1 or 0? )

Cue the Jeopardy music.
 
Ill post the entire video tomorrow afternoon sometime before the National championships at 7:00
 
Nice video!
Sorry Evan, I cheated. I watched the video on YouTube while your post was being approved. I couldn't wait....:frog:
I really enjoyed it though, nicely put together, music was good, and photos ( especially ones of the egg ) were fantastic. Well done.
 
Very neat! What was the clear, thin material she was laying and folding her eggs in?
 
Plastic sandwich bags tied to a rock:D

    Hey everyone, just want a little advice. Its 55 - 60 celcius in my Salamanders tank. Hes curled up and tyring ti bury himself, Im assuming hes too cold. I was wondering if he would benefit from a heated rock cave (since he LOVES his cave) that I could set on low? I NEVER see him curled up and trying to bury himself unless his tank sits at 63 degrees celcius or lower. So I am assuming hes a little uncomfortable.

    He also seems a little sluggish, again, assuming hes cold. Having heating trouble with the new house right now. What do we think? Was thinking of grabbing this for him since its got very low, medium, and higher medium heat settings that exude heat downward inside the rock cave but ALSO exudes it UPWARDS outside of the rock cave, effectively keeping the tank itself a little warm. Seems like it miiiight be a little small for him though, my guy is about 7 inches from tip of his nose tothe tip of his tail. What do we think? https://www.amazon.com/Reptile-Simulation-Adjustable-Temperature-Tortoise/dp/B0CH1DPGBC
