Okay so last night my Boyfriend and I were admiring our 3 little axies as usual, when we noticed our oldest/biggest on Bruiser's region was much bigger than before!
No I've been doing a bit of googling this morning and don't reckon it's a prolapse or anything unhealthy.
He/She is swimming as normal, eating as normal, very responsive etc.
I'm wondering if this could be a sign of full sexual maturity and Spermatophores or Eggs coming our way?
Seen no Spermatophores yet so I don't know if Bruiser is a female and has got pregnant without us ever noticing!
Marshmallow and Salsa both have small Cloacal regions so I'm totally confused!
Been trying to get a clear pic since last night but no success!

    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?
