Hi!

Over the past couple of months, Frank has developed a weird chin thing. It isn't interfering with him eating or anything, but is this something I should worry about?

It kinda makes him look like John McCain :lol:

Thanks!

I heard fluid build up under the skin is possible in axos, thats probably one of the best case scenarios of what it could be as its not particularly harmful but I've never heard of it being that much though. I'd want to take him to a vet to be sure but I understand that not everyone has an exotic vet easily available to them.



I hope someone more knowledgeable has a look, I mostly just wanted to say Frank is still cute, big chin and all. :love:

    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?
