Hopefully i can get them breeding..
 
Wow, you must be thrilled Ian. Are they adults?
 
yep Adults, i was quite surprised at their size must be the biggest warty newt.
 
Hey Rigsby, looking good!!!

Is this a new import, or did you buy the animals from your friend, and he had them for a longer period of time?

Stunning animals..
 
Stunning! If anyone can get them breeding, it's you. Good luck with them.
 
I am green with envy! How many animals, Ian - 2 or are there more? I wish you the best of luck with them.
 
only the pair Heather but hey who knows there could be a lot more this time next year.
 
Those are very nice specimen, Ian - Congratulation!
I hope you will get them to breeding.
 
Nice animals! This is the first US appearance for this species that I am aware of. Is your friend inside the US?

Congratulations Ian. If anyone in the UK can breed them successfully, you, and Louise too, would be top of the list I am sure!

Hi Chip,
That had me scratching my head. I think he is in Cleveland England not Cleveland Ohio.
 
Michael is right. He's in the original Cleveland.
 
Jeez. I need to pay more attention before posting sometimes! Not that I am planning on taking on any new species anytime soon however I was excited that someone in Ohio had these guys:)
Chip
 
Congratulations Ian!
As said above, if someone can breed them that´s you hehe.
 
Great markings on that pair, you must be pleased with those guys.

    Had a question that I just want to be sure of. My marbled newt is a little over a year old and has started to develop and I noticed that he is starting to swell a little below his abdomen. I guess I’d like to know if they are his testes or if I need to be concerned.

    Hello!!! I'm new to this website and idk how to ask a proper question on the designated spot yet, so I'll ask here, I'm a first time Axolotl owner, and my dad used to run an aquarium store, anyways... Orca, my Axolotl, seems to loose parts of her toes on one limb from time to time, I can't seem to find the problem. Tempature is well, she doesn't seem to have any infections or anything, though. And I'm not sure if I'll be able to find a vet in Brazil for amphibians that are in a reasonable distance to drive without stressing Orca out too much

    Hello, I’m hoping for some advice please. Our Axolotl is about 7 months old. Till now no problem. Eating, growing and happy. He’s simply stopped eating. Everything looks fine, his gills look healthy and no apparent signs of sickness. He just swims past the pellets and bloodworm like he can’t smell it. I don’t think it’s a blockage either. Any ideas and suggestions for treatment would be much appreciated. Thank you!

    Dear All, I would appreciate some help identifying P. waltl disease and treatment. We received newts from Europe early November and a few maybe 3/70 had what it looked like lesions under the legs- at that time we thought maybe it was the stress of travel- now we think they probably had "red leg syndrome" (see picture). However a few weeks later other newts started to develop skin lesions (picture enclosed). The sender recommended to use sulfamerazine and we have treated them 2x and we are not sure they are all recovering. Does anyone have any experience with P. waltl diseases and could give some input on this? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
