My Axolotl Family

[Jenste]

Well, to start with, here are my two original adults.
Reese the wildtype female and Butters the golden albino male.

And the two leucistics and wildtype. Both are just under 2"

Adoptions both in need of TLC. The leucistic is fairly better off, in the process of regenerating a back leg. The gfp wildtype is regenerating both front legs and the back legs stick out to the sides rather than down.

Once the young ones are old enough to determine their gender they will be named

Aww they're gorgeous. Butters is such a lovely colour! And well done on rescuing the poor legless one! He's really landed on his feet coming home with you (no pun intended )

Thanks Butters is a handsome little devil.

Hopefully in the fall some of these little guys will be large enough to go in with my adults.

They are all loving dinner time. I had to switch them to live blackworms due to the sudden unavailability of frozen bloodworms. I can't find them anywhere around here. I feel lucky to have been able to track down the live blackworms.

Congrats on your babies, I have 5 Axies and have tried on a couple of occasions to hatch and rear young but failed each time ! Can I ask what plant you have in your first picture that looks like it is floating at the top of the tank. I had some floating plant but I didnt change my CO2 so it all died. Would love to get them some more as the loved hiding in it.

Sorry I just noticed your reply!! The plant at the top is Water Wisteria - - I just let it float and with in a few months you have a great canopy as it grows pretty quickly
