Hey everyone... I need some help regarding Darwin (my female axolotl) I've been feeding her and her mate Earth Worms since I got them. But just now, I fed them as usual, and Darwin was hungry as she snapped my finger a few times before I got the worm infront of her face... But once she ate it.. She threw it back up again (It was still alive) but then she kept dry reaching, like she was throwing up but nothing else would come out... she did this every 3 seconds for about a minute... should I be worried? Or do they just do that every now and then? Is it because the worm she ate was alive in her belly and did damage? Should I try and feed her again or just leave her for a day?? Any help or comments appreciated! Thanks in advance.. |

Axolotl do this occasionally when they have eaten too much. I wouldn't worry too much, just keep and eye for any unusual behaviour.

Thanks Julia, I just fed her again this morning and she ate it fine... :-) I think I just panicked last night because it was distressing for me to watch her gagging... But I'm happy to report she is fine and back to normal this morning :-) |
