Description:
Crayfish or crawfish are characterized by a joined head and thorax, or midsection, and a segmented body. Colors range from a sandy yellow, green, white to pink or dark brown in color.
Facts:
Crayfish or crawfish are an especially affordable forage alternative during harvest season which is April to July, but can be stocked anytime of year.
Spawning Characteristics:
Most crayfish, crawdads or crawfish live short lives, usually less than two years. Therefore, rapid, high-volume reproduction is important for the continuation of the species. Many crayfish mate in October or November, with egg laying usually occurring the following spring. The eggs hatch in 2 to 20 weeks, depending on the water temperature.
