Hello!
This is the first post on this forum for me!
I was given four young axolotls for my classroom last year and we were surprised with eggs in mid November! As I am a high school biology teacher in a small school this was truly exciting although unexpected!
About 1/2 the eggs were developing and several had hatched when the water got very cloudy over-night and all the embryo's and new hatchlings died except 1.
Many of my students hoped to adopt one of the juveniles and were really disappointed.
I am looking to buy some eggs or juveniles but I can not yet post on the for sale section because I am a newbie!
Does anyone have advice on how best to locate eggs for purchase
1) How far away can they be shipped from?
2) what is the success rate for survival (should I buy many more than I need just in case?)
3) do they do better if you buy the least developed or should thay be almost at the hatching stage?
Any advice I could get would be appreciated!
Do eggs survive best or
