Shipping & Returns

SHIPPING POLICY

Shipments will be made 1-2 days after ordering according to the time of purchase. This is due for the need to fast the axolotls to prevent built up excrements from accumulating in their container. this prevents ammonia levels from rising, which will potentially kill the axolotl during the shipping process.

Express Shipping

Express Shipping will take place Monday - Wednesday after the allotted fasting period.
