My local pet store got a new batch of axolotls in, they get them from various local breeders.
I've never seen this color before though, I was thinking "lilac"? All of them were this pale grey color, or with grey spotting. One seemed maybe like a copper but I just couldn't tell. All had dark eyes.
Another question, all the smaller ones were missing their left gills, all three gills and just on that side. I wondered if it was genetic? The staff on hand weren't there the day they were brought in so they didn't know if they came like that or not. One suggested that they were attacked, since axies of this age tend to bite. I said it was a bit weird that it was the same side on all of them, every gill, I couldn't even spot a stalk nub. The larger one had all six gills.
