My babies are now 4.4 weeks old and the bigger ones are nearly an inch. How often should I be feeding just to double check. I feed frozen bloodworm and frozen daphnia. The reason I'm asking is because I have heard that bloodworm can bloat axolotls. Is it bad to feed to many of them to many times. The big ones seem constantly hungry I am feeding large amounts about once a day as I have heard once or twice a day is right it doesnt seem enough though so yesterday i fed them in he morning as well as night. They had one cube of bloodworm cut up between 129 of them ( more than enough as none of them finish it all ) in the morning and at night they had one bloodworm cube and a bit of daphnia, but I am worried about them snapping at each other should I up their feeds. Will it be alright or feed more bloodworm. And should they still be having some live food. I'd say myself three times a day is probably kinder for them how often does everyone feed theirs? Thank you in advance.
 
So I have just red up and it says on a site. To feed once or twice a day. And that at 2 cm they become cannibalistic which is the size the big snappy ones are. Could the way they look hungry be more of because they are snapping at anything that moves and are at the cannibalistic size. I might up them to twice a day feeding :). They have their front legs now let's try to get some back ones :)
