2 new axies! woohoo!

casey · Jan 29, 2006

These are my two new axies;

melanoid - Sambuca
wild-type - Brandy

Friends...

Brandy...

Sambuca...

And Stella... just so she doesn't feel left out...

I keep saying "I love you Stella, just so she doesn't get upset" - Only axie parents would understand this - I hope no-one else catches me in the act! hehe

hey casey, they look soo cute. i love the colouring of brandy i wish there were more melanoids here. and sambuca has a really nice dark colour also, reminds of velvet for some reason?!?.

casey · Jan 29, 2006

Thanks Alex.

I haven't seen many melanoids here - I was lucky that my dad found a new shop that had one.

I know what you mean about the velvet - I think she might have had a bit of heat stress due to the temp of the tank in the shop - hopefully it will clear up - i think that whiteish colour on top of the black makes it look velvet.

I love them heaps!

i love your to new axies. i am looking to get a second axie for my milkyway, i was considering a wild type but now that i have seen sambuca i might try and get a melanoid. how much did you pay for each axie and did you quarantine them and for how long.

Ohhhhhh!!! Congrats Casey!!
They look great!!!
Sambuca looks like velvet!! TOO CUTE!

casey · Jan 29, 2006

Denise - they were $25 each. My dad bought them for me but I wasn't allowed to quarantine them. He didn't want them in his fridge and it's too hot in Victoria at the moment to have them in a bucket of water.

I just have to keep a very close watch on them. I would have liked to quarantine them for 30 days - that's what I did with Martini - but she ended up getting sick anyway.

I like how Sambuca's gills are all uneven lengths - I think it makes her look dorky, but cute.

I've noticed Brandy keeps "hiding" - usually on the filter or it's output. Does anyone have any idea why she might be doing this?

ur new axies look really nice

love the colour of Brandy

wish i could find one like that, if i did dont think i could resist not getting it

casey · Jan 30, 2006

Yeah, I love how her gills are like a crimson colour and the rest of her is like a murky green/brown with tinges of yellow! She's really cool.

I think I've got a great little family now - let's hope one of them turns out to be male so I can have cool little axie babies!

leg of female

skylar · Feb 7, 2006

Its not the leg - its the cloaca.
Also these axies i think are juveliles and you can't tell till they are almost full grown i think.

jojo · Feb 7, 2006

LOL ive only just saw Alex's post now about the velvet. i didnt see it! See everyone thinks he looks like velvet!

I think its just the texture of this skin, i love it Casey. Again - very nice selection!
Come to think of it.. i havent seen many melanoids here either **hmmmm**
