Hi there:
Yes, they were true red-bellies. They looked like 6-inch fire-bellys without any markings. I have correctly identified mine as a rough-skinned newt (I'll have to change the label!) The store was currently out of tarichas last night, so I bought another newt that I rarely see...
A Japanese fire-belly. I haven't seen these guys in a couple of years, and only see the rough-skinned Chinese fire-bellies. I had a Chinese for awhile, that lived with the rough-skinned newt. But the Japanese is different. He hates to be picked up and runs like an Anole, is about 4 1/2 inches long, has big eyes and smooth skin. The belly is also brighter and has more markings. Thanks.
DAVE
