The Caudata Haiku thread

Lol, just realised that one is down right wrong, I'll try again later. It's the thought that counts! :)
 
ARGH! SALAMANDER!
Why is the tail of your kin
Halfway down your throat?!

*sigh*
 
Hey, new melanoid

Ode to stumpy
Axolotl runt
now fat and healthy and......oh
He's a boy - yay!
 
Oooh this is just far too good to be true! Let's see if I can be as cool as everyone else :p

Ow! There goes my arm,
Big brother was too hungry
Wait there's new nubbies

Summer sun rises
Every time still earlier
Not enough playtime

Sometimes when I gulp
And it makes my human laugh
My poop has bubbles
 
Winter time again
Hibernation for my newts
Dude, is that tail frost?!? :eek:
 
Why is my newt Orange?
He thinks he's a Mandarin

    Hello!!! I'm new to this website and idk how to ask a proper question on the designated spot yet, so I'll ask here, I'm a first time Axolotl owner, and my dad used to run an aquarium store, anyways... Orca, my Axolotl, seems to loose parts of her toes on one limb from time to time, I can't seem to find the problem. Tempature is well, she doesn't seem to have any infections or anything, though. And I'm not sure if I'll be able to find a vet in Brazil for amphibians that are in a reasonable distance to drive without stressing Orca out too much

    Hello, I’m hoping for some advice please. Our Axolotl is about 7 months old. Till now no problem. Eating, growing and happy. He’s simply stopped eating. Everything looks fine, his gills look healthy and no apparent signs of sickness. He just swims past the pellets and bloodworm like he can’t smell it. I don’t think it’s a blockage either. Any ideas and suggestions for treatment would be much appreciated. Thank you!

    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.
