♥️Hey guys!! We are new to this site so please forgive me for not knowing where to post this☺️…. I need your opinions… (zoom in) does this baby have one eye or is one side albino or something? He/she is the only one like this☺️ Lol

Those are gorgeous lotls. However if I may offer some unsolicited advice, MAC and Lucy are their phenotypes. Hets are referring to the recessive genes that are not visible in the parents but will be passed on to their babies. The babies could be Mels or Albinos even if the parents are both Lucys for example.

No worries! You're doing a great job for a beginner since they all look healthy. The one with a single eye is interesting because I can see an eye shape if you look closely but no developed pupil. Keep us posted for sure. Either a one eyed lotl or a mosaic possibly.

    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?
