Holdout release – 5.5” Mel Albino with ridiculously long gills – Mosaic Clutch – #TA179

Holdout release – 5.5” Mel Albino with ridiculously long gills.  This is one of my holdout releases. Meaning it’s one of the nicest from the clutch that I have been holding onto due to its coloring, nice markings, and long gills: and it’s potential as a future breeder.   It comes from a very special high mosaic producing  breeding.  You will get the exact animal in the pictures   

This juvenile comes from a pairing which has produced 8-10 mosaics in a single clutch before! That is AMAZING! I own 4 of the mosaics from the previous pairing and they are gorgeous. See pics of them in this post.   I’m hoping to find some mosaics in this second pairing.  Many look promising but am waiting for them to grow out more before determining the patterns.

Parents:

The mom is beautiful light copper het axanthic, leucistic, Albino and Mel and the dad is axanthic melanoid het leucistic,and  Albino.      The parents are owned by a local (Tim Allerton) who shared the eggs with me. Both parents had been purchased from pet stores and no further lineage is available.  The parents had been bred before and had produced 8-10 mosaics from 100 viable eggs.  

Birthdate of the juvenile listed:

The babies started Hatching on September 26, 2024. The clutch consists of a rainbow of colors … Leucistics,

Axanthics, mels, albinos, golden albinos and wilds.

Pictures in this listing were taken on February 26 and are for the actual Axolotl you will be getting.
