Hi guys! A little while ago one of my baby axies took a dive out of his tub onto my kitchen floor. Ouch! He has a small contusion on the top of his head and a little scrape on the top of his tail. Honestly thought he was dead for a moment. Perhaps he was knocked unconscious. I’m not sure. He’s slowly moving around now but I didn’t know if there was something I could do for him. I’ve had axolotls for years. Never had one injure themself. Any suggestions? I think I attached a pic of his injuries.

I don't think there's anything you can do but take good normal care of him and wait and see.

    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?
