Hey, so i have a 2 year old leucistic axolotl and i'm worried he is too small, when i bought him from the breeder she said he was the runt, and right now he is only a little over 2 inches. I feed him earthworms in cut up pieces, every other day. i'm a little worried.

So sorry! I meant 4 inches, not 2 inches!! so sorry! i got him four months ago and the previous owner/breeder said he was close to 2 years, and that he was the runt and would get blocked from the food by the others.

    as long as its not freezing they should ship fine. I usually ship mine in 2 days priorities like axolotl. insulation and some cold pack. Is this morphed or still a larvae?

    I currently have a 3 year old axolotl, he hasn't been eating for the past couple of weeks and has lost a lot of weight. Hedwig usually eats bloodworms and earthworms just fine but now he won't even stud it. I've done a water change to make his nitrate lower and his water is at a good temperature
