Almost 2 months ago, the little axolotls hatched from the first eggs my Copper axolotl laid! And one of them is very special ^^

Too cute!! Thanks for posting :D

Please be sure to post updated pics regularly - it'll be interesting to watch this one grow up :)

I'll sure do! He will stay with me for about two months, in august he'll be moving to his new home ^^ Maybe the new owner will be interested to post some pics here as well...

Here is a picture when he/she just hatched :happy:

Wish you were close to me.
I'd have snapped that one up in a second! :D

Your lotls must be special if you don't want to keep this unique configuration
- I couldn't part with that special one.
But that's just me - I'm such a sucker :eek:

Very nice! Thanks for posting and please take some photos and show them here just before it leaves in August.


Regards Neil
 
@ Nikki: I have 4 axolotls and I have room for five... But I'll be moving out my parent's house and I have to find new homes for them :( I'd love to keep them, but I won't have the space for a big aquarium and the money to care for them properly... That's why this one will be going (with a few others) to a friend of mine :happy:

@ Neil C: No problem! I'll ask my friend if he wants to continue posting pictures ;)

Does your friend have the ability to care for them? Coz I don't live too far from you, and I wouldn't mind taking some off your hands xD

(heb ik ook al op die Nederlandse site gezet :p)

Yes, he has the ability to take care for them ;) The axolotls will be very happy in the 160 x 60 x 60 (cm) tank he is making for them!
 
Wonderful :)

Still, if there's any coppers among the babies, I call dibs :D:D (if I can, lol)

Well, I'm afraid there aren't :( There are a few less dark wildtypes... But more than that...
 
I wish I had a chimera! But my axies won't even lay eggs...
 
So far my axies haven't bred, my poor Derpy (so far the only male) keeps getting rejected... poor lil' bugger :p
 
Lol, pretty much the same thing over here :lol:
 
This wonderfull little one is going to be living with me :)
offcourse I'll keep posting photo's ;)
 
It's a blurry picture, but look at those cute little back legs!

That's so neat! Can't wait to see him grown up. :)
 
His toes are beginning to show and he's starting to use his back legs!

Some more pictures...

Your Chimera is growing very well. What was the father of this youngster as it looks like half copper/wildtype and half leucistic?

    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?
