About Rocky Mountain Axolotls
Our Vision
RMA is a small business run by myself, my name is Heather and I am a Colorado Native, hence my selection of Business name! I started off in the aquarist hobby in 2015 and began my axolotl journey in 2018. I have been breeding axolotls since 2021. The business has scaled down from a small business to a hobby for me. I selectively breed axolotls, alpine newts and Chinese Firebelly newts. Raising healthy axolotls with fluffy gills is my specialty while also doing my best to weed out undesired genetic traits to preserve the species.
I am located in southern Colorado Springs, CO. I do not have a storefront. I ship to all legal states and offer local pickup on my days off from my full time job. All sales will be through direct contact to ensure the sale is a good fit for both the customer as well as the animal. Prices on animals vary depending on morph and variations. Lineage is provided at my discretion, all animals I produce are produced with the intention to be pets not breeding animals. This is not due to genetic issues, it is due to the mass overbreeding of the species. If you are looking for an animal for breeding please reach out and I am happy to recommend some reputable breeders who I know.
Axolotls are sensitive creatures and have specific care requirements, thorough research and preparation is a MUST before purchasing one to ensure it thrives in its new home. Resources such as care sheets and cycling information can be found in my Facebook group as well as on this site under “Downloadable files”. The Facebook group is “Rocky Mountain Axolotls - Customers & Friends”. This is also a great place to ask care and cycling questions as there are other breeders and myself who can promptly answer you.
