Hi as with a previous writer I have 2 Firebellied Newts who hide all the time. I have had them for almost a year now, one male and one female. I keep them in a homemade split tank with moss substrate and monapi wood for them to hide under, the problem is that they never come out at all, I have never seem them in the water which is filtered and has plants in also.
Both newts feed well on earth worms, moth grubs and wax worms but only under the wood, I use a small torch and can see when they feed. Initially they both kept away from each other but now they are always curled up together when I lift the wood. Also I have noticed hardley any feaces in the last couple of months where as previously in the summer. So anybody any ideas why my newts are not active and do they change their habits with the seasons??? |
