Greetings fellow amphibian enthusiasts,
I have several Himalayan Crocodile Newts (Tylototriton verrucosus) ready to go into new homes. This is called the 'Dark variant'; and is much more aquatic in its lifestyle than other forms of verrucosus and other species of Tylototriton. They are between 3-4", living the aquatic life and eating live black worms and frozen bloodworms. You should have a well established aquarium, with plenty of floating live plants at the water line as well as a small cork island to haul out on. I have them at 68-70F.
They are $120 each. I am not interested in off loading my animals for cheap, bulk discounts. These aren't the commonly found Spanish ribbed newts that a simple water change induces breeding.
If you want to get top quality newts at bargain prices, get in your car and drive to Tinley Park and be first in line at NARBC next weekend. The demand for rare, exotic newts is high; and quite frankly, there are only a handful of dedicated caudate breeders left in the USA. Support your newtman.
Shipping is by overnight priority express FedEX only; typically between 75-80$, but it can be more. This is 2022. The cost of everything is up.
