Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Evaluating and adjusting fish populations Fish ID

I'm not saying that it can't happen, but I think the odds are better of me winning the Powerball.

Fish eggs are fragile. Dip your hand in a duckweed laden pond, drive a mile with your hand out the window of the car and see how many have dried out. I don't know if a fish egg could survive drying out.

Flat land or not, I'd still bet money on fish swimming from one pool/pond to another thru a flooded area, or an area that had flowing water, no matter how skinny the water was vs. eggs being transported.

The fish eggs would have to be sticky enough to stick to the bird, but not sticky enough so they fall off in the new pond. That narrows it down species wise. The eggs would not have to be cared for by a parent fish, like FHM care for their sticky eggs. The eggs could not dry out during the flight.

Lots of variables for it to happen, but I'm not saying never. Almost never? You betcha.
