Very rare variant that can only occur as a result of breeding. Its like 1/400 or something.

I've killed enough axolotls to get me life in prison and you got it by accident. Life is unfair, but be happy with what you have.

try breeding it with a base variant to get a 50% chance at getting another and breed those two blue ones like crazy, then you can flex

I’m so mad I literally have a breeding center on my server and have never got one

7

u/Traegs_ 1d ago

I managed to get one in like 40 minutes of trying. I started with 4 axolotls and got up to 25-30 before one popped up blue. I was shocked.

Just keep trying. It'll happen eventually.

u/MapThis213 6h ago

wtf is this luck

3

u/Traegs_ 6h ago

Small dick, universe has to make up for it somehow...

2

u/The_Silver_Sorcerer 1d ago

Did they change it? Because it at least used to definitely not be just from breeding.

5

u/Traegs_ 1d ago

They used to spawn when they were released in 1.17.

They changed it to the rare breeding chance in 1.17.1

You can duplicate them easily by just having him and another axolotl breed

u/vicmakey01 1d ago

Grats on the blue boy! It took forever for me to have a breeding pair. There’s a river that runs through my village that I walled off and I’ve got probably two dozen axolotls defending the river like cute lil piranhas

4

u/anti_arctica 1d ago

Here I am trying to light my river up to stop all the drowned from coming up to my base, thank you for reminding me axolotls can help!

5

u/vicmakey01 1d ago

You should definitely still light it up, they get demolished by tridents! Try building any dams 2 blocks thick so they can’t attack through on the other side. Also the lil water lizards kill everything but you, villagers and frogs, truly ferocious
