Sold!

We started this summer with 63 babies, and today I sold the last few to the Malawi Aquatics pet store near Saint Louis. All that is left is Viceroy Bubbles Von Salamancer (the one we are going to keep) and two we are saving for a friend. 


It has been an adventure, and we are more than willing to answer any questions anyone might have. Let us know if you have any problems, and let us know if they are doing well at isuaxolotl@gmail.com. :)


Good luck, and happy axolotl ranching! >(^‿^)<

Glowing Under the Black Light

The camera doesn't do it justice. They look a lot cooler in person.

The wild-types don't glow as much as the leucistics, but their eyes look pretty awesome.

It doesn't show very well, but this wild-type's head and tail are glowing.

The next two pictures were taken from my roommate's phone about a month ago.

This is Kipper, the mom. She is also a leucistic.

No Longer Babies -- Juveniles

The technical name for a "baby" axolotl is a larva or larvae, but I think that makes them sound like a bug. Gross. Anyways, we are pretty sure they are officially juveniles now.

And they are always hungry. 

I moved them into larger containers. Coincidentally, the exact same containers they were in as little hatchlings nearly two months ago.

They are getting along just fine, and they love to play.

The leucistic on the bottom is Viceroy Bubbles von Salamancer. Bubbles is our only leucistic which has spots.

As always, if you are interested or would like more information send an email to isuaxolotl@gmail.com.
