Just got a Axie, could do with some advice on all topics, and can I feed raw liver as a treat ?.
Thanks.
 
Welcome to the forum, and congratulations on your new axolotl. Are you fully in love yet?

You should find all the answers to your questions here :)

Regarding liver, they will eat it... but that doesn't necessarily mean its a great idea. The concept of a 'treat' doesn't really exist with an axolotl, they just know 'food'. So you might as well feed them the very best, most well balanced, wriggly meal you can - and thats earthworms. They love them and they are very good for them.

Liver is very high in certain nutrients (vitamin A being one of them I think) that can actually cause toxicity if you feed them too much.

So I would stick to good old wriggly earthworms. My lot started paying me a LOT more attention when I started feeding them worms!

I hope you enjoy the forum, it's very addictive and full of lovely people who know an awful lot about axolotls.

    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?
