My first axolotl, Izel!

[Samyueruchan]

So, here is my very first axolotl. I love his/her freckles! I just snapped a few pictures with my phone so please excuse the poor quality! The glass could do with a clean as well, I think. S/he seems very happy at the moment, gorges him/herself every feeding time and loves to play in the evenings. XD

Hopefully I can borrow my mother or father's camera at some point to take some nicer pictures of Izel and his/her tank. I still don't know if s/he's a boy or a girl. I don't really have any side-on pictures to upload but if you can tell Izel's sex from these pictures then I'd love to know!

aww.. he or she is gorgeous.

i want one just like that!

and he or she does look happy =)

what are you feeding her at the moment?

 

[Samyueruchan]

I mainly feed him/her frozen bloodworms, which Izel seems to absolutely adore! I gave him/her a few worms from the garden yesterday (so I guess they were earthworms?) but S/he was, surprisingly, not very keen on them. She had the first one really quickly but didn't much feel like the others. Maybe s/he was just a bit full as I couldn't resist the urge to give him/her a little bedtime snack of half a cube of bloodworms the night before.

I adore his/her freckles! S/he is about 15cm at the moment but growing fast! I've added another picture that I took today just 'cause s/he was giving me a cute facial expression and I couldn't resist snapping it. XD
