Hope you can tell from the pics , thank you .
 
I am pretty sure the bottom one is a male, not so sure about the leucistic. Ideally we need a photo from the side so we can see behind the hind legs and from above so we can see the body shape :D
They do look very well fed :D
 
Bottom is definitely male.
What color is the one on the bottom? Just a unique wildtype? He is absolutely gorgeous!
 
I have a little lady just like your wild type, lovely coloring! Again, bottom I'd say male, luecistics hard to tell due to the picture angle.
 
Looking at the reflection of the leucistic in the tank base is it female? I have no experience of sexing axolotls but it does not seem to have the same lumpy appearance as the wild type. Just a prominent cloaca.

Unfortunately axolotl genetics don't work that way, you could really get anything :eek:

Thanks,

I am going to sell all of them if I can, never posted before but on reading I can post recorded delivery and only post on a mon, tue wed or thur so not stuck in the post office over the weekend. Anyone advise on how to send them for there safety?
 
Well, got 3 hatched, which wasn't bad considering they were posted at the start of that really cold weather. Moved first two soon after hatching as there was a lot of fungus. The third died soon after hatching before I could move it. Both survivors looking like proper larvae now and got some baby daphnia in their tub. This is fun!
Look dark like wild type, presumably. To be expected..... Checked up on the genetics. (Studied this at uni so no excuses)
Many thanks for the eggs.
