    Default 2 juvenile leucistic axolotls need homes!

    Hi everyone,

    My two leucistic axolotls had a clutch back in December, and I was able to raise and rehome all but two. They're both at about 3 inches long and are eating thawed blood worms. It'll be $5 per axolotl plus shipping. Please. PM me if you're interested.

    Thanks!

    Ack, foolish me. Since they are juveniles, they would have to be overnighted. Overnighting salamanders is about $30, so if you are interested please include your zip code with your PM so I can approximate how much it'll cost to send.

    Thanks!

    I ship a lot of animals myself, there is a way to ship priority (2 days) and keep them alive for about a third of the price.

    its called foam and inflated ziplock bags haha. seriously though, I would ship an animal in a plastic tupperware tub with airholes, wrap that in plastic wrap, put it in a foam box (with any needed temperature modifiers) wrap that in platic wrap, and put it in a box with enough room to put inflated ziplock bags around it.

    It would be, but it's starting to get very warm in my area, so I don't think shipping Priority will be an option any longer. Overnight would be ~$30, or if anyone interested is in the Boston area we could meet up.

    sorry about dropping you like that. I just ran out of room. If you use foam and a couple of water bottles that were filled and frozen shipping in warm areas shouldnt be a problem.

    Yeah, but I'd prefer to not chance it. My luck is terrible, and since these things are living creatures I want to get them to their destination as quickly as I can.

    What is the minimum size of tank one needs as an adult? What temperature range do they need?

    For one axolotl at the average length, they require a 10 gallon tank. Since axolotls reside on the bottom of their tanks, it's best to get a tank that is longer than taller to provide optimum space. They thrive at about 65F, and their temperature cannot go about 75F or else they will get very sick. I keep mine at ambient temperature (70F) and they do just fine.

    Hi, Would you still have these axolotls, and if so what color are they. I live just outside of Boston and we have been looking for someone in the area who sells them. Please let me know how much and if they are available and if so can I purchase one.

    Thank you
