Default My Metamorphed axolotl

Hey guys, I posted about my little girl when I got first got her, I have had her around 6 months now. I kept her in the fridge ove summer and have just brought her out today, I'm cleaning the frog tank lso so they're both in a tempory box while their substrates cool. They will both be getting a pinkie mouse to fatten them up a bit this week then back to crickets. Lilly was fed once a week while she was in the fridge at 7 degrees. She's very healthy and alert.

Thanks, she's a great pet, she's been very easy to keep, needs a bit of work in summer though. That's why many don't live long, they can't take the heat.

Only wild types retain the wild coloration, albionos and melanos will retain their original colour also.
