The hatchery: the questions farmers ask us most

Straight answers to the questions that land in our inbox and on our phones every week.

Selected broodstock, clean incubation and careful first feeding give you fry that grow fast and evenly. We breed for growth, survival and disease resistance — and we track every family line.

Three things that make the difference

• First feeding — Live feed and micro-diets for the first weeks.
• Health certified — Each batch is checked by our fish vet before sale.
• Graded sizes — Fingerlings sorted by size for even growth.

How we do it, step by step

1. Broodstock: Parents conditioned with the right light and feed.
2. Spawning: Eggs collected and counted under clean conditions.
3. Incubation: Stable temperature until the eggs hatch.
4. Larval rearing: Live feed, then weaning onto starter diets.
5. Fingerlings: Graded, vaccinated and ready for your farm.

They answer the phone at 6 am when you are stocking a pond. That matters.
