hi everyone,
ive got two axoltls they about 5 inches long and im feeding them bloodworm once a day! i was just wondering if this was enough??? how much and how often should i be feeding them?
any info would be sooooo helpful

thanks julez
 
I should get them on earthworms.
 
Mine eat two red wiggler worms everyday. I would say a bloodworm cube is likely enough. The axies should be about as fat as thier head is wide.
 
Mine are 5 - 6 inches long and I was advised on here by a moderator to feed mine every other day at that size :) I mainly feed my guys earthworms as they are much better for them and they love them. Mine eat 2 each every other day but I also use blood worms and pellets to keep the diet varied every now and again.

Good luck
 
thankyou, i will get digging for some worms!!!! i have loads of bloodworm left so will feed it every now and again!!!!
thanks again everyone!!!!
 
enjoy :) no problem good luck

    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?
