I use soft moist salmon pellets and an occasional earthworm. I recommend checking the Indiana University axolotl colony website for info.

We just fed the regular mix of frozen bloodworms, blackworms, salmon pellets. Haven't gotten around to earthworms yet but would feed those- just a good variety of balanced foods.
