Your axies look amazing, I've always loved the wildtypes for the diversity they show.
Whats the beige coloration called??

Is it also wild type, but just a different variation?
 
Hi Crazy,

I'm not sure I bought him as olive colour. Its a type of lighter shade of wild type apparantly
but I'm not entirely sure as someone mentioned earlier he thought it was a type of semi albinism as it shows not much dark pigment but I don't think so. He also said they breed in a different way the copper tones when they cross with each other you get coppers but when you cross other axolotls you don't get the same colour. It definetly is quite different from other axolotls Id really like too know what it lineage and genetics are too.

I absolutley love the diversity you get in wildtypes too, I used to have a chocolate brown one with gold spots when I kept lotls a couple year back, called him Megabyte because the first time I fed him he bit so hard on the worm.

You get this beige/olive shade every now and then in australia, people overseas dont seem to get them that much I heard. I love my other one too think Ill call him Hannibal or soemthing becaue he looks so mean, I picked him especially because of his greenish specking , he hasa tremendous appetite too downed 9 small worms when I first fed him. The beige one who I call wimpy doesnt eat nowhere as much as he does even though hes double his size.

Oh! What beauties! The darker one seems to have a mischievous gleam in his eye in the first picture. ;)
I really like the coloring of the lighter one...!
 
They are lovely! I also have an "olive" but i havent got photos up yet.
 
Great looking axolotls and another fine example of the australian copper coloured wildtype
 
Is that really a Australian phenomena? like the name Australian copper type sounds like a like a breed:happy:
