:confused: We have recently acquired 2 axolotls, and within a week we had a heap of eggs in the tank! They were laid 3 days ago, so I'm assuming we have a couple of weeks until they're due to hatch. Do they have to be seperated from the parents because they get eaten?? Or can I leave them there?!
Does anyone know where I can get live food for newly hatched eggs near canberra (Australia)?
 
Hi.

Newly hatched eggs would need to be removed if you're looking to raise a family of Axolotl. Leaving them in the tank would probably end up with them being eaten.

There is plenty of Info in regards to breeding and raising axies, within this very forum! Just use the search function and you should find it all:rofl:

    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?
