They will return they claim. Are these different than the orange spotted neuts or just a different skin for season?
Good question. We have the same species in West Virginia that you do in New Hampshire. The orange form is the eft. The new larvae metamorphose into terrestrial form which is bright orange, and they remain like that for several years. Then they become the adult aquatic form.

Much prettier than our west coast rough skinned newts.
