Wahey! Got my babe Yang on saturday and she is doing splendidly! She polished off half a cube of frozen bloodworm near enough! I don't think i'll feed her today, she looked real fat after eating it all! It didn't look like that much food but it was nice to watch her chasing the little red worms as they floated!
Mates at college think she is scary/ wierd/ discusting I actually think she is the most interresting pet between the whole college group

Face to face with a turtle!

Once my pet store gets wild types I will be able to get her a friend! guess what i will call it!??

Yin! Wahey!!! Wouldn't a melanoid (black) be better than a wildtype for that name? Wildtypes are way cool though- I've got a leucistic (white)and a wildtype myself.
 
very nice looking (the turtle too!). When you get another axie don't forget to quarantine it for 30 days!
 
will i need to get a spare tank for the 2nd one tho? won't they be quarantined in the shop? they don't sell quickly at all.

Vikki
 
you dont need another tank for it to be quarantined just a container that will hold water that is big enough for it to live in for a month they should of quarantined it at the shop but its best to do it at home as well just in case
 
Vikki, you can use rubbermaid tubs. They're a lot cheaper than tanks for quarantine.
 
cheers

gourgous axolotl! how young is he? he looks pretty small in the photos.
 
Yang is around 10 cm long, Yin, my new wild type axi is around 6cm. They have cute characters, tho there's a bit of competition for food, i have to feed them quite a bit cos yang is greedy and chases Yin away from the food.
I know i should have quarantined Yin but he seems fine, Yang does not attack him i think it is just a threat but i will always keep a look out for diseases.
Yin always hides and i don't know where he is until i turn the light on and he comes out into the open, silly scamp!

    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.
