After the second batch was bad, my female laid again, about a month later. Weren't many eggs, maybe 200. I got them all out. Nothing developed.

I was doing a partial water change, and must have loosened up these from a hiding spot, but I now have 3 wild type/leucistic eggs and the first hatched today. Laid Mar7-8, hatched Mar 21/22

I thought i had all my babies out of the tank when they were still eggs.. until I saw Mama going after a very small but quick little larvae! I thought I was hallucinating a sand flea or something jumping halfway across my tank each leap until I got a closer look. Got the poor little lotl out of there in a hurry and fattened him right up! Mama was less than happy about it tho :rolleyes:

Well, I have 25, 3 month old 4.5-6" juvies from the last batch in need of homes so...


I am looking for three to four, between my friends and I. What colors do you have? One wants a leucistic, I would like a female, but am less picky about color. What colors do you have, and do you ship to Oregon? What would be the price range I would be looking at? :happy:

    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?
