It's still happening in Java edition.

I experienced 8 axololts vanishing. Two of my kids have experienced the majority of their salamanders vanishing. Things seemed like they were working in the Java edition. The fact that it's a bedrock edition issue also is a flaming arrow towards bad code.

You bunch over hyped the salamander things. Now... Roblox is the game two of my kids turn to first for entertainment. There is only so much ice cream you can buy to sweeten away the tears of frustration. For kids on the spectrum this can be a serious issue.

I'm pissed that it took 14 tropical fish to successfully breed one baby axolotl in a population of 6 captured, then contained, wild adults.

The game was fine without the salamanders. You added the amphibians and then over hyped them. Now the pound of flesh is being called to account.

I can feel for my kids. I'm pissed now. I went out and captured over 24 of these silly things and... have three offspring left to show for the effort. Three different containment solutions, three different biomes. You made them and then marketed them to an audience that paid.

Well... where is the entertainment value in that investment by your customer base?

PS.

 While I was composing this post. I'm logged into our family server. I was looking at an aquarium view with one axolotl left in the display. It was the one successful axolotl that I spawned by breeding two captured wild salamanders.... vanished.

It's just gone! Yes... it's just... gone! I didn't log out. I did adjust some inventory items between a shulker box and an ender chest. Regardless... the digital salamander is gone. Gone like the wind. I hope Mojoang isn't going to say to us: "Frankly player, we don't give a damn!"

Gone with the Mojang!

This isn't fun. So much for the entertainment. I'm sure Douglas Adams might have something nice to say about this. Thanks for all the tropical fish?

This is happening to me also.

I can't keep axototls in a created pen. I put 6 in a pen and they vanished. On second attempt; the issue was supposed to be resolved. Replacement axototls placed in same pen. 6 more... I was going to try to breed a blue one. I had to go catch some tropical fish. Upon return. The pen is empty of axototls. 

That's not a very happy Minecraft adventure session. They seem to do fine sitting in buckets. I just don't think it's very humane keeping them in buckets for too long. The guilt!

I'm using the Java version. 1.17.1 .... that one; in multiplayer.
