Hi I have several couples of adult axies and no matter what I do I can't get them to lay. I have lowered their water temperature, warmed them up, moved them to another area but still no luck. I know I have sexed them correctly because the females have laid eggs before when no male was present. Any ideas?

I find if you want them to lay, they won't. Animals seem to know these things.
Just relax, if you have males & females in there living happily & healthily, they will lay in time.
I understand how frustrating it is, but the best advice I can give you is to leave them be with the breeding, take good care of them, and just be prepared for eggs with your live food.
Good luck.

Can female axies lay eggs if there is no male? I thought they only laid if they were really pregnant... maybe I'm mistaken, you sure all your "females" are females?

Can axolotls lay eggs without a male??
This post kind of delves into your question. Kaysie says they can occasionally lay infertile eggs, but it's very rare for any female axolotl to do this. Was the female strictly alone (including no females/maybe males)?
