Would this be a speckled leucistic?

My girlfriend recently convinced me to rescue a little juvi from our local fish store that was clearly being beaten up pretty bad by the wild type they housed with her. When we got her she was missing two feet an entire front leg and had pretty chewed up gills and a piece of tail missing... We already have four and are currently growing up some larva, but I couldn't say no to her and I knew we could give little hope a chance at a healthy happy life so obviously I said yes.. anyways she was listed as an albino, however I've never seen an albino with black eyes so I'm suspecting a dirty Lucy? Any opinions on this little guy/girl??

Re: Would this be a speckled lucistic?

It looks a little green/yellow so maybe a copper?

That is definitely a copper, they are very beautiful and are harder to find in stores, at least where i live.

    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?
