Okay, I have eleven little ones. I have them seperated into individual tanks because they started to show their cannabilistic tendencies. (There used to be twelve :sad: ) Anyway, I was wondering when they axolotl babies start growing their back legs. No particular reason, I'm just curious. The big question for me though is how to wean them off bbs and on to frozen blood worms. Any advice is appreciated :D
 
Axolotls - Biology

That is the cycle you can expect.

As far as when you can feed them blood worms, uncut it will be a little while but if you chop them up really fine while they are frozen you will find they will eat them now probably. I know I fed mine bbs for too long.

Good luck.
 
In my experience the back legs develop within 4-6 weeks.

The little time formula I use is:
The back leg buds will start growing a week after the front legs have developed including with claws.

That seems to hold true for the clutches I have had. The 6 week-old ones I have right now all have their back legs fully grown in :)
