Hi

Nice newts.

Whatkind of substrate is that? I currently have 3 marbled newt efts on soil from my garden. not sure how suitable that is? How damp do they need to be kept?

Thankx

WOW! These are beautiful!

Those are beautiful, Louise! What is their size, roughly? They look quite large for being less than a year old. Good work!

the look real nice. how cold do you have them right now and with the yellow stripe are they all females?

very nice specimens! i really miss my marbled newts they are one of my favorites. i got a group of 6 thinking i would at least get one pair..... all females.... every one. i couldnt locate a male to save my life either, so i got rid of them.... this was quite a few years ago i must add. anyhoo, very nice specimens and i hope you do very well with them

Thank you all for your comments! The substrate is orchid bark with moss, which was put in originally because it was a tropical white woodlice culture.

Jen-They are large, around 2-2.5 inches including tail. They have always been good feeders!

If the animals are juveniles, they usually have the orange stripe, but as they age, the males lose that stripe.

You can´t keep them. It´s illegal. If you keep them anyways, run the risk of pay a big big amount of money because it´s, illegal. Can just keep other species that not the endemic, like cynops, axies, triturus sp. less those marbleds. ambystomas.. you have enough range.
