we have about 500 eggs and at least 50 or so you can see two babies in is that normal or should we be worried? it is her first batch of babies and i am slightly worried it might have been to soon or we did something wrong.
any help would be great.
thnkz,

Yes that's normal! We had quite a few like that as well. I didn't bother counting how many we had though!
 
I agree with Kapo. I regularly find 1-5% of the eggs in any given clutch of axolotls are twins. If one dies, the other usually does too.

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
