Ethical Axolotls

10/02/2025

I've got some lotls up on the website!

Feel free to ask about other available animals; it's difficult to list everyone and I prefer to discuss potential homes directly.

Shop for healthy axolotls here. We have rescues for adoption and pedigreed axolotls for sale. Shipping is available.

Tbh the second one was just getting my finger checked out to rule out a medicine reaction (Zoro bit me), though last January I dislocated my shoulder while retrieving an axolotl. She yeeted herself behind a 60g tall tank/stand set up.

My husband swears these axolotls will be the death of me. He may be right - if I'm not devoured by Zoro, I'll fall into a 40g at some point.

Glad to announce that Tuna the roach will be happily devoured on live stream by a deserving reptilian.

Donate to Jonathan's Reptiles! A really great organization to support if you love herptiles and saving lives, which most of us do!

It’s that time of year!! Join us for our 6th annual Valentine Cockroach fundraiser. This year we are raising money to establish a scholarship to support a local veterinarian student 😃❤️🪳
Pick a name, any name, and watch it get devoured!
Thank you to the Mat-Su Animal Shelter for hosting and to our sponsor Alaska Feeder Farm!

After a long day in Anchorage, what else to do but stop at SoYo Yogurt Shoppe ? Go follow their page, you know you want toooo (the humor is almost as good as the food... almost...)

At the vet with Ms. Rose!

If you're in search of a high-quality exotic vet in Alaska, I highly recommend Hillside Pet Clinic. They've worked with my lotls for a bit now.

And a big thanks to Kindred Aquatics for covering the exam fee for Rose.

We are getting Rose an ultrasound after an unsuccessful breeding attempt by a local, as she seems to be holding a lot of egg 'jelly'. She's finally regularly eating, though we're not out of the woods yet.

Here's Gumbo, looking for new digs - this handsome lad is 9" and ready to either cohabitate with another male or live happily alone.

He is likely a Copper Melanoid. Contact the page if you're interested!

Matilda says hi! She's one of the bestest girls ever, coming from Dapple x Patina, produced by Northern Axolotls . I REALLY don't want to let her go, but I might consider bringing her to an upcoming expo :)

Is everyone ready for ScaleFest: Fairbanks Reptile & Exotics Expo ? We'll see you April 19th in Fairbanks, with the most stunning axolotls you've seen since the beloved Northern Axolotls' business left our state.

Let us know if you'll be there, and what types of axolotls you'd like to see!

We'll also bring an array of adults and juveniles, both pedigreed and rescued, to the All Alaskan Reptile Expo the following week.

We are so glad to offer the biggest salamander rescue service in Alaska, as well as a small axolotl breeding program thay pairs only the highest quality animals, because we want to produce the best offspring possible.

A huge thanks to Pet Zone Tropical Fish, San Diego, California for the blackworms we so desperately needed for a few recent surrenders.

(Psst - the GFP Copper Leucistic girl in the photo will come with us to the expo!)

If you're in South-Central Alaska and ready to bring home a bearded dragon, Mat-Su Animal Shelter has one available for adoption!

Be aware that these guys get *huge* and need appropriate lighting (UVB and heat), diet (lots of veggies and good protein like dubias), and an awesome enclosure like a 120 gal or a similar 4'x2'x2'. Don't forget a high-quality substrate for their enrichment, a little bio-activity in your substrate goes a long way :)

Come get your Leucies~ The Axolotl Crossing has several lovely juveniles available. If you're looking for a stunning, healthy Leucistic, I recommend acting fast!

Meet Blueberry Muffin and The Barista - they are two presumed female Wilds who have been with me since early this year. They are from separate circumstances, however they are literally *always* together, so I'd love to see them homed as a pair.

I do not have their hatch dates, however they have both gone through presumed 'gravid cycles' and have cohabitated well with my females.

8️⃣0️⃣ for one or 1️⃣2️⃣0️⃣ for both.

✈️ 📦 is available to all legal states from Alaska, they could leave as soon as January 14th!

2-day for these ladies will be 4️⃣5️⃣.

Piggyback rides!

I'm not totally sure what they're doing, because this isn't even how salamanders breed, but whatever it is they seem to be having fun.

Meet Jasper! He's 1.5yo, stuck in a snow globe, and available for a new home.

Jasper is pet only due to lack of known genealogical information, and therefore should NOT be bred.

He loves worms, snowy days, and getting stuck in easily-escapable places.

He is 8️⃣0️⃣ and he is available to ship January 7th.

🚢 available to all legal states, from Alaska, via FedEx Express. 2 day is 3️⃣5️⃣ and overnight is 8️⃣5️⃣

Someone free this man. He's been in his globe for 15 minutes.

Hi worm-giver! Get my good side 😄

This is Orchid, a lovely gal who hangs out on my dresser. She was hatched by Northern Axolotls.

I know breeders who would die for this sort of dirt on their Leucies! Thanks so much Shawn. I hope to get one more pairing out of this old girl.

Just a little Kirb-posting to improve your day

Axolotls, like many other exotic herptiles, require live or fresh food to stay healthy. The nutritional value of fresh food cannot be beaten by frozen or freeze dried food, in respect to an insectivorous diet.

Earthworms are the answer - specifically nightcrawlers, as red wigglers secrete a toxin which can cause GI upset in some animals.

Nightcrawlers contain a crude protein analysis of 60%

✨ Moscato has found her forever home with a local aquarist! Thank you Nate! ✨

Moscato is ready to come home for the holidays!

She has been with me for a few months, after she had been surrendered from a situation where she cohabitated with a male almost twice her size. She is approximately 4 years old and very small, ~6". Her two right legs were amputated upon arrival due to extensive infection after the male had bit her.

Thankfully, she has flourished and regenerated her legs quite well. I am ready to 🚢 her the 16th of December if a deposit is confirmed by the 8th.

She is 💲4️⃣5️⃣, and cohabitates well with other girls.

🚢 within Alaska is 💲2️⃣5️⃣

🚢 All other legal US States 💲3️⃣5️⃣

Please visit our care guides or contact us for assistance with husbandry. Moscato won't be listed on the website until after the holidays, so messaging this page is the best way to get her at this time.
