Hello everyone! I have been having trouble with my axies health. finally found a vet that would answer. she decided to do some laboratory tests of their skin, mouth and blood. and see what can be found.

but it is difficult to find some reference values. what is normal. and what isn't.

which microflora is normal. in what quantity is normal and in wich could be harmfull.

so far we haven't found literature about it.

if anyone could help, I would appreciate a lot. and hopefully get together information that could be useful for everyone

cheers!

    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?
