Hello everyone,
I was recently in my local petshop looking at some new frogs and reptiles they had in as I was thinking of keeping some. One of the tanks looked empty except for a little pink head sticking out from the undergrowth! This was a completely terrestrial tank, except for a small bowl of water.
When I asked the man what it was he said it was an axolotl that had morphed into a salamander. I know that some people cruelly try to force their axolotls to morph, but this was a completely freak accident. She simply escaped from her tank and they couldnt find her anywhere, only to discover her several weeks later behind a section of fish tanks, completely morphed.
They actually thought she was dead, so when they picked her up thinking she was gone, she gave them a good bite to tell them she was alive! She has grown eyelids, and is completely air breathing. Although she moves slowly she appears healthy as she eats plenty of mealworms and even shed her skin last night.
She is a little miracle and I want to make sure she survives!! but I cannot find hardly any info online as to how to keep her. Below are some pics....tell me what you think!!
