The claw!

I wouldn't say this is a problem for my juvie otherwise I would have posted in the "sick axolotl" thread. However, she has a deformed leg...

Introducing THE CLAW...


As you can see, its quite obviously bent back and upward. Her foot has two "normal" toes, one with stunted growth and two tiny little ones. One of her others has 6 toes! She's still able to move it and swim without trouble. In fact, due to its position it looks like she's waving when she swims..

I thought I'd post as I've never seen anything quite like it. It's been like it since she was tiny and I quite honestly thought it'd get bitten off by a naughty tankmate but apparently not..

Does anyone think it could cause problems later on in life or eventually end its rein of terror by being bitten off or even dropping off?!

It doesn't seem to be affecting her and it's kind of cute.....instantly reminded me of the Jim Carrey movie "Liar Liar"....

It's shouldn't be a problem. It just one thing that makes it different than the rest. There are some axies that don't even have legs and are doing fine.

I find it incredibly cute and she's a beaut all the same to me!
