    • @TLFarm
      @TLFarm  Рік тому +1

      Apologies for sounding thick as mince mate, but we haven't got a clue of its name. We have two different types that form naturally. Both do well in half light conditions. One gets eaten until it is spent (the fluffy one lol.)
      The other one is very clumpy/ lumpy. The juvenile crayfish eat it but it's too prolific for them to clear it all. This one, to date has only grown in one tank.
      We tend to fill a tank a couple of weeks before introducing the baby crayfish. Because we don't scrub the tanks clean the algae grows back quite quickly each time.
      Sorry can't be more specific for you mate.

      Depending where you are in Aus you may not be allowed to raise redclaw as they're an introduced pest in most of the country. They're from the Norman River basin in FNQ and even here in SE Queensland they're a pest. They've just about wiped out all other crayfish down here including C. destructor. Check your states biosecurity regulations.

In time maybe i will try to catch a few of them and try to setup an non escape place for them . For feeding i was thinking on worms , because i want to make also compost for my garden its a win win for me .

Usually it's large males who like to look for new territories. During droughts they trap water in their carapace like a scuba tank in reverse and can cover literal miles in one night looking for another waterhole.

      It seems like a lot, but so long as you hold 1 party for every crawfish born on the same day, you'll only have to hold 365 crawfish birthday parties per year (366 on leap year). Wrapping presents is going to be the real chore.

    I live in Phayao, Thailand & we have these growing wild in the lake. The locals trap them and sell them. I have yet to see anyone eat them, they apparently just put them in aquariums and such. Crayfish have become very popular food in China, seeing how the Thais like everything Chinese... maybe they will accept yabbies as well.

    Do you prepare the water with any chemicals or is it just tap water and add the crayfish(shrimp)?

    • @TLFarm
      @TLFarm  Рік тому

      We don't use any chemicals. We're off-grid, so use rain water, water pumped from.our borehole or outside ponds.
      If using tap water, maybe let it stand for a day or two before adding your crayfsh. That'll help to dechlorinate the water. If chlorine levels are very high then it'll take a few more days.
      Crayfsh are very sensitive so it's worth the wait.
      Hope that's of some help.to you.

      This new UA-cam channel is designed to run along side a full online course that we're working on, about growing crayfish.
      If you'd like to subscribe to the channel then you'll be able to watch the new instructional videos as we publish them.
      We'll also let viewers know when the online course is available.

    For the BIG riverprawns, cut open the back of the shell and slit down 20% of the way then BRINE them in the fridge.. in 2 hours they will PUFF UP and the strong smell you dont like will be gone. Remove Quick rinse and pan fry bake or slow grill.
