We have 5 young axolotls (2 1/2 - 3” long) looking for new homes. They are all eating exceptionally well and growing so fast and it feels like it’s time to let new families enjoy them 🩷 We did not breed them, we bought 9 (and raised them from 3 weeks old) so we could choose 4 for ourselves and family members and my son has decided who is going where, and these 5 babies have not been claimed yet. If at all possible, we’d keep them all lol, they’re very cute and have adorable little personalities already.

We have 2 leucistic and 3 wild type, all supposedly have GFP. It’s very apparent in the leucistic ones, but the wild type are harder for me to get a good read on still (the bigger ones are more obvious to me, but they’re not as bright as the leucistic). I assume they will become more obvious as they grow and their speckles aren’t as concentrated in such a small area, but I’m not an expert and really don’t know how that works.

They’re currently eating blackworms because I find it easier and less messy, but they’ll also “hunt” (in the cutest way possible) frozen brine shrimp - the water just gets really gunked up with the shrimp and needs cleaned immediately afterward (please read about juvenile axolotl care - they’re not difficult, but it’s not a fish and you can’t just put it in a tank with a filter and let it do its thing :) ).

Raising these little ones from the time they only had front legs has been such a fun, unique experience! They’re ready for other families to take it from here and really build that bond with them 🩷

We’re asking a $40 rehoming fee to help cover costs associated with this adventure and to make sure new families are serious 🩷
