Who dares me to answer 'for IVF! I want them implanted into my womb to make some weird, freaky Axolotl/Kazerella cross-breed'




"SPAWN OF AXORELLA" sounds like the making of a great movie

She didn't even flinch- must be used to me now

Got the babies in the tank now- I've counted 16 eggs I think- definitely 15, but there might be a sneaky one hiding. We can't quite work out if it is one or not and don't want to fiddle with it.

Lewy has taken pictures so I'll sure they'll be up soon.

Here they are - Some pics of the dots!
Hopefully they'll hatch and become more than dots

Oh my god! I can't believe how quickly they are developing!

I left this morning and they were still spots. I came home after just 8 long hours of work and they've morphed into a kidney bean shape already!

This is fantastic. Lewy has got his posh camera at work, but he'll no doubt post pictures of their development tonight.

Only trouble is one of the eggs is still spot shaped- either that's a slow developer or it's not viable. Fingers crossed he's just lazier than his siblings.

I know- scary isn't it. Very interesting though, I'm looking forward to going home everyday now just to see how they've developed.

Best tenner I ever spent
