My 6 month old Axolotl ate 2 Nightcrawlers this morning. They are European Nightcrawlers. He is still acting hungry. Can I throw another one in tonight or will that be overfeeding? I chop them up and throw them in the tank and he will eat them over like 30 minutes.

He'll spit out when he's full at his age, if I'm not mistaken. Juveniles and babies have an internal mechanism which causes them to do that.
 
I wouldn't feed more than once per day at this age. He looks nice and healthy. You'll have to get used to the begging, he may be one that begs more often than he really needs food.

    Dear All, I would appreciate some help identifying P. waltl disease and treatment. We received newts from Europe early November and a few maybe 3/70 had what it looked like lesions under the legs- at that time we thought maybe it was the stress of travel- now we think they probably had "red leg syndrome" (see picture). However a few weeks later other newts started to develop skin lesions (picture enclosed). The sender recommended to use sulfamerazine and we have treated them 2x and we are not sure they are all recovering. Does anyone have any experience with P. waltl diseases and could give some input on this? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
