Axolotl eggs? I know it's a long shot, but it's worth an ask.
We've just seen loads of eggs in out tank, they weren't there this morning so haven't been there too long. Does anyone know anything about hatching them?
I know we'd be lucky to have any survive on our first attempt, especially since we weren't expecting it, but it can't hurt to try right?
We did initially think we had two boys, Philip and Patrick... Patrick is now
Penelope!
Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity
To seize everything you've ever wanted
One moment
Would you capture it?
Or just let it slip?
Go on caudata.org it has all the info known to man amd has its own forum dedicated to axolotl keeping. Any eggs you want to keep to try and hatch, remove...parents will eat the rest.

How does the species survive if they just eat all their kids???
Sorry to gatecrash your thread (don't know if you use your names on the boards OP?), the fact above just tickled my curiosity!
^ Yeah :) In better light they're surrounded by two layers of jelly. They're growing so fast and we (OP & I) think they might hatch this week :) They look like little arrows with eyes but still tiny (maybe about 8-10mm in length?) and still in their 'shell'. It's amazing :)
We've attempted to set up a brine shrimp culture so there's food for them when they hatch. It has to be tiny live moving creatures until they develop legs and stuff.
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.

Because it's not my thread :P And she may want to deliver the news herself >_> Whoops!
They started hatching yesterday, I've only seen a photo but they're still tiny ^_^ But they're being fed live food now, so hopefully they'll grow up to be big and strong. It's all very exciting ^_^
