Ordering Embryos....

Anyone ordering embryos needs to give us at least a one week notice as to when they need the embryos. This way we can plan for the matings that are needed to fulfill the orders.

Also, we do not breed our adult axolotls during the month of August. Even with our year-round temperature-controlled rooms, we experience a seasonality when it come to the sucess of our matings. Therefore, we give our breeding stock a break during the month of August. We will resume breeding the first full week of September.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!
