Hi everyone im new to site im a 34 vet nurse whos in love with axolotals ? i currently have 5 adult axies Moudussa and Chelsea the girls and poisiden; captain crunch and titan are my boys... Moudussa and poisiden have had 500 hatched baby axies and Chelsea and captain crunch have 100 eggs 6 have hatched way to early but still thriving and waiting for the rest to hatch..
I have had so much luck we started off with live baby brine shrimp until my staffy axle knocked our hatchery over so we bought daphnia( frozen) and bought the instant brine shrimp in jar and yes yes yes we have had success our baby axies are even munching on minced up frozen blood worms and daphnia a mix of food.
We have been selling them to people and they seem to be going good and they are going too quickly but would love to know best age to let them go cos they are just 2cm big and starting to get there arms.
I am obsessed with these beautiful mysterious fish/amphibian

Hi! I'm new here too! I love your axolotl's names, especially Captain Crunch :D . I haven't got my first axolotl yet, but I'm going to set up my tank tomorrow so hopefully I can add my axie in a week or two. Welcome to the forums!

    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?
