Dear all,
I'm a new member here, currently living in Canada, my daughter just got a newt for her elementary level scientific project, after doing small search trough internet and browsing several topics in this forum, I'm nearly sure it is a kind of warty newt (paramesotriton?) but some said it is a giant newt (?)I think I need to get more acurate info from the expert here, what kind of newt it is exactly, is it male or female? and where do he/she prefer to feed, subaqueous(underwater) or subaerial, I try to give it bloodworm underwater, and it seems work, but I saw it has a bit difficulties to swallow them (it eyes always blinking several times and looks like it take a deep breath before it could swallow the food). It could finish a cube of freezing worms (approx 1x0.75x0.75 cm) in a half an hour with that really slow feeding pace.
here are some pictures of it, sorry if it is a bit blur since it took by my daughter:happy:
