I was just curious... How common are white kaisers? I bred some kaisers but they came out normal color.. One is darker thAn usual but how common are completely white kaisers with no spots or anything? And if you guys have any show us pics :)
 
From my research it happens one out of 50 from a gene thing. Albino gene

is it going to remain completely white or will it change and get spots?? does anybody have any adults that are completely white?
 
I had once such a white larvae, with dark eyes. it developed a few colour spots very late but died for unknown reason before metamorphosis.
 
Here's another one. This is my friends kaiser. Hopefully more of these start showing up. Though someone said to me "that's kind a sad, because it won't be as pretty as the regular ones". This one seems to be retaining gills and most others from its group are dropping gills fast or have morphed.

I've never seen any adults that were albino or leucistic. I think it's safe to say your kaiser will retain it's current color or most of it. The picture I posted is a few months old.

It's sad for more reasons other than the loss of such spectacularly extravagant coloration.
 
does anybody here keep here any unsually colored kaisers?
 
I have quite a few that are white, as larvae. As they morph they get their adult coloration. Doubt any that I have will stay white. I personally have never seen a white adult.

    Had a question that I just want to be sure of. My marbled newt is a little over a year old and has started to develop and I noticed that he is starting to swell a little below his abdomen. I guess I’d like to know if they are his testes or if I need to be concerned.

    Hello!!! I'm new to this website and idk how to ask a proper question on the designated spot yet, so I'll ask here, I'm a first time Axolotl owner, and my dad used to run an aquarium store, anyways... Orca, my Axolotl, seems to loose parts of her toes on one limb from time to time, I can't seem to find the problem. Tempature is well, she doesn't seem to have any infections or anything, though. And I'm not sure if I'll be able to find a vet in Brazil for amphibians that are in a reasonable distance to drive without stressing Orca out too much

    Hello, I’m hoping for some advice please. Our Axolotl is about 7 months old. Till now no problem. Eating, growing and happy. He’s simply stopped eating. Everything looks fine, his gills look healthy and no apparent signs of sickness. He just swims past the pellets and bloodworm like he can’t smell it. I don’t think it’s a blockage either. Any ideas and suggestions for treatment would be much appreciated. Thank you!
