Mature already??

[seagull]

Ok so tortilla just reached 6 inches long this month and she is already getting pale fingertips
i think i read that dark axolotls get pale fingertips and light axolotls get dark fingertips upon sexual maturity
is this now the case with tortilla?

Sounds like it!

It is debatable. I had read that about the toes too, but more recently I have been reading that it isn't a definitive indicator.

Our leucistic adult had dark toes about 3 months before "she" became obviously a "he". So in that case, the toes were not a good indicator.
