SMILE FOR THE CAMERA

Here's one of the best pics i have of Acheron. Not really smiling, he's more "thug" like in this pic, imo.

Amanda, he looks very young did you rear him or buy him? do you know his age at all?

Maja - He's about 15cm long. lol. he's hiding right now, so that's my guess.

Mel - Funny story. I go to a college that focuses heavily on the sciences. One of the classes here is Animal Development, in which they "grow" axolotl's. They observe the differences in growth between room temp, and those grown in the fridge. However, at the end of the class, they have nothing to do with them, and so give them out free to any student that wants them. So I picked up Ach this past April. Lol, i used to have two, but within 30 minutes of having them in my possession, he ate his brother.

lol
So Ach is about 8 months old, and he sprouted his front legs about a month after i picked him up. Hope you didn't mind the long answer!!
 
amanda, long answers are great! he looks very happy and healthy! looks like he has a great home oxox
 
Hey Amanda, That's great that you got him from your school. What were the results of growing them under those two different circumstances? Just curious.
 
wow thats a nice smile there Sideshow Bob! He looks so happy and friendly in his little cave (PVC pipe)
 
Leanne look at those eyes! Wow, never seen them ringed with Blue like that before

Jordan--Sideshow Bob LOVES that pvc pipe, heh---he's like a turtle in a shell with that thing most of the time

Apryl, Diablo is the cutest by far axy I've ever seen! Nice freckles!!

Hayley, is it weird/unusual for him to have blue eyes? Hmmm...never even thought about that--cool!!

Leanne, I don't know if its weird to be honest.

I had a leucistic 3 years ago and after she had died me and my sister had a arguement over whether it had had blue eyes or not.

She said they were black and I said blue, but after that i never saw another one with blue eyes so i thought i must have imagined it....but yours has too! So maybe I was right

He looks gorgeous with them anyway

Here's one of Sideshow (Mr. Blue Eyes, heh! Frank Sinatra has nothing on Bob!!), smiling big time (of course he's eating a cricket):

I guess I've never seen a diagram of an axolotl's inner anatomy!

    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.
