Ok, so i knew newts may display breeding behaviours in a pretty...free way. Meaning that it doesn´t matter if it´s male or female, your species or not...you tail fan and see what happens.
But right now, one of my L.vulgaris males is tail fanning like crazy to a snail! A.......snail!! He´s been doing so for the last 5 min or so.
This trully adds a new dimentiom to "blind love" in the world of caudates to me xDDD
 
Lol. That is hilarious! My male dobro only fans the females but one time I watched him tail fanning a female and she left, he had his back to her and didnt notice she was gone for about 5 minutes!
 
Hahhaha! I'd watch out for any "strange" eggs in the near future

    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.
