Posted: 12 Jan 2007 Well a friend of mine handed me 4 young newts today as he has just recently moved into a new house and he's filling in the old pond which i think is criminal. He didn't want to just let the young newts die so he gave them to me. I am just holding them til i get the chance to release them. I think they're just common newts, can anyone confirm this for me? |

Smooth or palmate - buy them some daphina and bloodworm from a local pet store they will love that

Posted: 13 Jan 2007 Thanks for that jon, i have kept newts before but never this small, i always fed my last ones earth worms and they went mental for them but these are too small for that so i will have to get out there and buy some food for them as you advised. Thanks again. |
