Do you have a supplier that would sell 20-25 sterile crappie? And ship them.
Hopefully I can put together a better order. I am in need of some RES again for other ponds.

This pond is up stream from other brood ponds so I would hate to risk single sexING the crappie.

Thanks.!


JM Malone has tried to produce triploidy BCP, but the survival rate was under 5%, I think, so it just isn't economically viable. I think some states with big budgets still produce triploid BCP. Hybrid Black Crappie reproduce, but offspring are inferior...LMB have shown to be able to control populations and little or no HBCP recruitment is being seen in ponds with LMB.
