Pond verses Wild Crawfish

[Duck Butter]

They were once all the same Red Swamp Crawfish, now 'they' may be trying to do some genetic work with the farm raised but not sure about hybrids. 'They' would have to breed the red swamps with another to produce a hybrid and not sure what the other would be.

There are 35 species of crawfish in Louisiana, do you know how many species are edible?

Some of them I don't think you can eat simply because they are threatened or endangered . Calcasieu Painted is my favorite, beautiful little sucker. There is a ton of them though.

lmao, musta been a cajun. There ain't a mudbug in the world a cajun won't eat. Them little suckers are too damn small to fuss with in my opinion. Haven't seen too many wild crawfish that weren't Swamp Reds that are big enough to eat. Then again, most of the wild one's I've seen are in ditches.......
