Hey guys I just got a baby axi from a pet shop it's very tiny missing a limb and gills are almost all missing what can I do for it? I'd really hate to see it die. I have pictures on my phone but can seem to upload them.

Baby axolotls are known for nibbling each others limbs off so I'm sure theres nothing really to worry about. Keep your axie well fed, in clean, good quality water and everything should grow back on its own eventually!

    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?
