Re: You laid eggs?! I THOUGHT YOU WERE A BOY

I had one years ago that I now miss very much.  Did you buy yours online?  Do you know of where I could get another?  I've been searching forever!

Check out Caudata.org. It's a great newt and salamander forum with an awesome axolotl area. There are sales boards too. :)
When/if these eggs hatch I will probably post them for sale there :)

Lol - what a great story  :)  And how exciting to have little babies on the way - I hope you'll keep us updated with lots of piccies!!

Not quite the same thing, but when I was a kid, I had a mouse who rather quickly got rather fat and then sprung 8 babies on me. She was obviously pregnant when I bought her, but I lost count of how many times I checked my other mouse freaking out that I had bought a boy and a girl lol!  Surprises, whilst they can be moderately stressful, can be a lot of fun  ;)

Cool, congrats!  Breeding animals are happy, healthy animals.  :)  And yeah, I wouldn't change the name either.

Uh, can I ask (afraid to), what happened with that other axolotl you rescued?  Did she make it?  The one that you gave to some woman (your boyfriend's mom, I think), thinking that she would give it a good home, and then she neglected the poor thing?  I hope you were able to nurse her back to health.
Nirvana grails:  Reverse Gusty (upgrade), Peru Windy and Moonstone (upgrade), Brazil TAF upgrades, Argie Powder w/ white hair (upgrade), French Windy and Moondancer (upgrades), Spain TAF's, TE's, and piggies.  These are my biggest wants, but I'm looking for tons more nirvanas, especially Greeks, Brazilians, and Peruvians.  Feel free to PM me for sales or trades.  But please note that I'm also fairly picky.

She passed on :/ There were no vets I could take her to in the area and advice from people online can only help so much... I was pretty shook up by the whole thing.

Also, I added photos of the eggs to the OP. :)

Ahhh soo cool to watch the eggs develop! How long does it usually take for them to fully develop and hatch?

Anywhere from 12-21 days, depending on how warm you keep the water. These ones seem to be developing pretty quickly so I think they should be hatching at about 13 days. :)

Oh my gosh, axolotls! I love axolotls! They're definitely one of my favourite animals. Oooooh I can't wait to see the babies! :D

When I was at high school I did a talk about axolotls in front of my English class. It apparently went down very well and everyone from that class remembers it after quite a few years, hehe. I hope I can keep some axolotls of my own one day.

That's really cool.  I wonder what colours you might end up getting.
