We received the trout egg shipment today. The first task is to count the live eggs and remove the dead eggs. Then we add the live eggs to baskets at the top of the tank. We call these baskets redds in honor of the nests their parents dig in the streambed to raise them.

This partnership provides curriculum resources, workshops for teachers and program partners, technical support, brook trout eggs and food, and grants
