Pictures of Esteban

[sws22]

This is Esteban my Axolotl. He is 11 months old and almost 5 inches long. Does this seem small for his age? I want him to be huge! He eats a large earthworm every other day, and he gets slugs a few times a week and sometimes pellets or tubifex worms.

Seems very thin. Cute though, just bulk him up.

I would feed him every day and earthworms are one of the most nutritous foods you can give them. Depending on the size of the earthworms I would feed him more than one, as many as he'll eat in about 15 minutes.

I want him to be huge!

He'll get nice and plump if you feed him a nutritious diet on a regular basis, make sure you don't end up with an obese Axie as a result from trying to make him "huge".

A "well fed" Axie's body will be about as wide as its head. That's a rough guildeline to tell if your Axie is under or overweight.

What a cutie! reminds me of my temporary baby Jobe, he was incredibly thin too. Good luck with feeding him up

What a cute little guy I would feed him more often he looks pretty skinny. When mine was that size (about a month ago) I fed him every day with black worms mixed with a bloodworm cube with a couple small pellets in the morning and maybe a few before bedtime. Now I give him earthworms with pellets and bloodworms as treats. He is growing so fast though! 3 cm in just a couple weeks! Feed him well and he will grow faster than you will believe. Just don't make him fat ( his body shouldn't get fatter than the width of his head looking down on him) have fun with the little cutie! they are so fun to watch grow.
