I am planning to get fire bellied newts but I can't seem to find anywhere to buy them. Does anyone know where to buy fire bellied newts in the UK?
 
I have the same question.

I have two which I have had for 18 years and I'd like to add some more to a bigger set up I've created. Can't seem to find anything online other than someone selling eggs. Would rather not go down that route but might not have a choice.
 
in England it used to be quite common to get them from garden centres that had an aquatic section, you could try ordering in with any pet shops that stock reptiles etc..
you could also try www.pets4homes.co.uk

    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.
