Hey everyone! Wanted to shoot this idea out there.
I've recently required some Marbled Cray Fish. These things are pretty weird! They stay fairly small (my biggest being about 4-5 inches) but pretty robust. Here's why these things are just weird: They reproduce by cloning themselves. This is the only known species of cray fish to do this, and one of the few species of animals to do it. They have no known natural origin. They were first discovered in a German pet shop. Odd, huh? Well, I've got about 16 of them, 3 of which with eggs. Soon enough I'll be crawling with them!

So, here's my idea. I'm thinking about selling these for reptile and fish food, also as bait for those that like to fish. They will be humanly killed then frozen to prevent any being released into the wild (these things take over in no time and are very destructive...). My question is, would anyone here be interested in buying once I get it going? Probably won't be for a few months or so. I also haven't decided on the pricing, but will most likely be pricing according to the weight of the cray. I'll post that once I figure it out.
