Hi,
I cannot believe what I´ve read. It makes me crying!
As many user told you before (me included) your axie has NO egg laying problem, but a dramatical organic problem depending on a bacterial infection. I think, she might have had this problem in December and that´s why she laid only 10 eggs. All non-layed eggs will be retired. Axies produce and absorbe eggs all the time. That´s why you can keep female axies without a male – without becoming any problems with their health.
Untreated bacterial infections of organs lead to defense reactions and the kidneys react with building up fluid (that´s what we call in German “Wasser” = “water”). This fluid, and your poorly axie is full of fluid, crushes the organs to death. It ends in an organ failure and in the axies death.
I am sure your vet is a good vet and maybe a specialist for reptiles – but he cannot be familiar with amphibians. Did you tell your vet what the user at caudate have written?
He should puncture your axie and look for bacteria in the sucked fluid!
Pardon me – maybe I´ll be in trouble – but I think it would be the best for your axie to think about an euthanasia. That will keep her from a long and torturous death.
Without the right medication she will die in great pain!

She is clearly a trooper hanging in through all of this so long! Please listen to the advice given- you did post looking for help in this matter, and you certainly have come to the right place. These guys, and girls know axolotls very well. Thanks again for the updates. I am happy to hear she seems to be doing a bit better.
