I dig your new signature line Mabro!

Not derailed at all!  How can I get some of these perch? Contact Piketon? Actually Bruce if your really want fast growing perch mine are pretty quick growing after selective breeding for 30 generations by a couple of folks in Ohio of the next to the latest was Bill Lynch of Marysville, Ohio is the master at perch production. (Same line Bill Cody has)They're originally from Lake Erie. I believe it's more than 40 percent above standard rates as I can produce perch some of them up to 8 inches by the end of October. I wonder how big they'd get if kept indoors in the winter? Only trouble is the testing fees or just under about $300.00 to send them to you. And unfortunately I'm not producing any perch this year due to that pond being used to hold fish until the big pond gets repaired. If I get enough interested parties next year to cover the testing I could be interested in shipping out some fingerling yellow perch.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

I think the feed for the third larger fish is a low fat high protein feed and in testing phases. Maybe low carbs too or high protein low carbs?

Do you notice a taste difference when eating fish due to what you feed them? That would determine what I feed the fish.

That's a valid question, but I haven't tried eating them yet. I'm sure I'll eventually get to that. I do know for certain however that the fish that I've raised in the past on Aquamax are delicious.

O.K. as long as I get enough people to help pay for the testing.

Bruce I saw the camels itching the other day. They look like they are really infested. When are we going to find out the facts? Next issue? By the way that stuff from the vet for fleas will not work in these guys. They have been carefully selected over several generations, putting only the biggest and the fastest growing back on the camels and the other ones culled.

found this old post on a google search. Is this secret food that grew the huge BG in this post the same secret food that has resurfaced in some newer threads this summer? Has it been in development since 2009?
Are we ready to release details or allow others to order it?
Bruce have you continued to use this same fish food?
