Chester Zoo Axies

[claire]

I went to Chester Zoo for a day out with all the animal care courses from my college! as soon as we got in there i ordered that we go to the aquarium part in hope of seeing some axies! i checked the board where its tells you all the animals in the aquariums and saw axolotls and i just ran passed all the other animals (poor things) and headed straight for the axies. here are some pics of them. some are out of focus but please enjoy

Very nice! I love the markings on that leucistic. I have never seen one marked like that before.

The one with the heavy face markings and spotted body... "I want one".

Now that you mention it the one in the 4th picture does look like Gus.... Except that Gus would be posing for the camera ~on the cat walk, on the cat walk~

I think the heavily marked one might qualify as a piebald specimen. Very rare indeed.

 

[cynthia]

OH thats true, I had forgot about that.

lol! Gus is such a poser! The camera loves him and he loves the camera. hehe! yeah i think it was a piebald axie coz it had the same kind of markings as the ones from my college!
