Feeding time



We fed the fry for the first time today. Looking down into the tank, you can see the size of the meal...just floating on the surface of the water. We have started with size "0" trout food, and will move to size "1 when they reach 1 inch in length. We've discussed that there may be a small mortality rate as the fish start to feed...some of the hatchlings just never begin eating.

Why do the fry eat there own brothers and sisters. Do you think they'll keep eating there own flesh.
