Description

50 Axolotl eggs, born 06/07/08 of June. Mother is a golden, father is a leucistic (white/pink) I have plenty of eggs, and will combine shipping if more is wanted. My rate is $15 for every 50 eggs.

The offspring have only been wildtypes before, but that may have been with a different father. Shipping is available but poses some risk to the fetus development.

Eggs can take between about 14-21 days to hatch, depending on the water temperature Baby axolotls will need to be kept in containers (not plastic) or spare tanks. They need to be fed live food, daphnia is your best choice. They can also eat baby brine shrimp, which is a lot of effort, and microworms, which I've never had success with while they are so small. I can provide a daphnia starter culture for pick up only buyers, for an extra $10. Once they grow all their legs, you can try using pellets or other foods for feeding.

Axolotls can grow up to 35cms, so need a tank of at least 45cm length, plus an extra 20cms for every other axolotl. They live in cold-water and need a filter to keep the water clean. As adults, they can eat earthworms, bloodworms or salmon pellets. They can be handfed, as some as too inattentive to notice food on the floor. They have no teeth, so it won't hurt if they bite you. They can NOT be kept on pebbles, either a bare bottomed tank, sand, or large rocks (which must be larger than their heads). This is because they eat with a sucking action, and can die from eating small rocks. You can't tell an axolotl's sex until it is about a year old. They can't be kept with other fish, they will try to eat them, or the fish may eat the axolotl gills.

I'll happily answer any questions, and after the auction is done, can give you as much information as you need to get going. For more axolotl information, check out http://www.axolotl.org and the forums linked on the main page.
