Doodad

[cynthia]

Doodad doesn't come out of hiding very often. She did today and I was very pleased that she let me take pictures of her. I had to share.

A light coating of white sand is what the well dressed axolotl will be wearing for fall

Yea i was wondering what that white was, that would have been a neat coloration if it had the white. Doodad is definitely one cool axie!

Oh Cynthia, she is so adorable

I love how she has sand on her head.

it is so funny when that happens to axolotls, because they never really seem to mind

It's so sweet. I also really love her chocolate/purple coloring, very pretty!

 

[jordan]

Her set-up is also pretty sweet!

 

[cynthia]

Thanks. I really like her color too. I am still not used to seeing blue eyes though.

 

[hayley-jane]

[jordan]

She's pretty sweet.

i love her eyes they rely give her character

 

[jordan]

She likes to hide all-day? Why, shes a cutie!

 

[cynthia]

Thanks everyone.

Apryl - I got her in April of this year as a fingerling, so she is about 8 months old. I am impressed with her size she is larger than my other axolotls that are older than her.

 

[leanne]

WOAH, that IS an amazing axolotl!

 

[rheann]

Cynthia, when she reaches sexual maturity and her full size, are you going to try and breed her?

If she had babies and they came out chocolate like her, they would be little Hershey’s kisses

So sweet and cute!

Rheann - I wasn't planning on raising any axolotls unless I had homes for them first. And even then only a few eggs at a time. I have survived the "OMG I have 500 baby axolotls, now what?" once, I don't think I want to do that again lol

Does your axolotl still have bright blue eyes too?

 

[jordan]

Where did you come up with the name Doodad?

 

[cynthia]

Jordan - It was just something that came to mind when I looked at her. I was unsure what color she was going to be. When she was small she looked green to me, blue to others.

Doodad has the same colouring and patterns as my Bill. But the eyes are very different.

I got a good picture of doodad with a clean face today.
