If you dont already follow them please go and check out Tara and Gaz! They do amazing work and need everyone's support. The care, love and support they offer everyone in caring for animals is amazing. The rescue work they do is outstanding and what they are doing building an education centre is truely remarkable!!

Do you think we should educate the younger generation? If so please share this post.
We nearly have 50000 followers imagine if you all helped this amazing family who is raising money for the rescue, we are ran completely voluntarily which means all the money goes to the animals and educates the younger generation.
We understand everyone is struggling so please share if you cannot donate.

Thank you all

Just a quick update for everyone - Facebook seems to be playing up at the moment and keeps kicking me out of Messenger. I can see your messages coming through, but I’m having trouble replying properly right now.

So if you’re waiting on a response, please know I am trying my best and I’ll get back to you as soon as Facebook decides to behave! Thank you for your patience 💚

Adopting vs Shopping đź‘€
Two axolotls. Two very different stories.
One of these was bought from a "breeder" and arrived:
• the wrong morph
• legs chomped off
• gills badly damaged
• underweight and in poor condition
The other is one of ours available for adoption:
• healthy weight
• beautiful full gills
• eating brilliantly
• full of personality
• ready for a loving home
Neither comes with fancy het labels or flashy sales talk. But only one comes with the care, honesty and welfare they deserve.
We will always say it... anyone selling animals in this condition is not a breeder in our eyes. That is not ethical breeding. That is cashing in while the animal pays the price.
If you are looking for an axolotl, please look beyond colour names and look at body condition, limb health, gill health, behaviour and how they have been raised.
Adopting saves lives. Shopping blindly funds bad practice.
Choose welfare first. Always. đź’š

Please note we did not buy this baby, it was surrendered to us to help it recover.

We have 4 adult females, and wild babies all looking for their forever homes. We simply can not take in anymore axolotls in need until we have rehomed some of the current axolotls we have. We have no Males available as of right now. Just these females and babies.

As always we did not breed these babies they were given to us as newly hatched babies.

Let’s introduce Dorian 💚
Not every axolotl that comes to us is here for rehoming. Some just need a safe place to land and Dorian is one of them.
He arrived with us today after his family made the tough decision to find him a new home. They did their very best for him, and we’re honoured to step in and continue that care.
Right now, Dorian needs a little bit of rehabilitation and a lot of love. He’ll be spending some time in quarantine while we get him feeling his best again, and we’re in no rush, he can take all the time he needs.
In time, he’ll join our boys here at Fern & Fin and we know he’s going to absolutely blossom 🌿
We can’t wait to share his journey with you all

Let’s talk about Roomba 💛
And when we say she’s a big girl… we mean BIG.
Roomba is a huge, chunky 12 inches of pure stocky axolotl and she absolutely owns it. This stunning dirty lucy has an appetite to match, happily munching her way through 4 or 5 worms a day like it’s nothing.
At just 2 years old, she’s still young and has her whole life ahead of her. She’s confident, full of character and an absolute joy to watch.
Roomba has now passed quarantine and is officially looking for her new home.
As always, correct husbandry is a must and we’re happy to support you every step of the way to make sure she gets the home she deserves.
Who’s ready for a big girl like this? 👀
