Crawfish are usually transfered from a "this years crawfish pond" to a "this years rice field" during the months of June and July. When the rice fileld is drained prior to harvesting the rice, the crawfish bury themselves, have their young and then come out of the ground in October and November when the field is flooded. They are primarily vegatarians and feed off of the stubble from the rice crop. Only rarely do farmers actually feed the crawfish, they survive off of the rice stubble and natural vegatation.
