Hello does anyone know what type of axolotl this may be. It’s parents are a wild type I homozygous for dark and a leucistic. It is much lighter in color than the wild types offspring. It also definitely has iridophores and the eye is actually black so it is not albino (hard to see in this photo. Other than that I am unsure and would appreciate help IDing. Thanks!

Given the above info, I would have to say very light wildtype. Are you 100% sure that the wild type parent is D/D and not D/d? If it was D/d, I'd say that you probably have a very dirty leucistic. From the picture, I'd almost guess copper, but you said it's eyes are actually black, so I don't really know.

Thanks for the info, I don't see a single leucistic offspring so I think the mother is D/D, but not 100% sure. I'm looking at copper babies online and I think that might be it. Hopefully I'll be able to tell better when it grows a little larger.
 
any recent pics of you axolotl?
Sorry I haven’t been too active lately but I’m pretty positive it’s a copper. Let me know your thoughts!
