While I goes through some crayfish sales on aquabid then I found a crayfish that doesn't need a mate for breeding purposes as they are self-fertilzation. I think they are called Mottled Crayfish but forget their latin name. So can they withdraw the cooler tempatures?

I'm getting a couple soon. Their latin name is Procambarus sp. "Marble", and it's been said that they're most closely related to P. alleni. They're the only know parthenogenic crayfish, which means no males are need, they just lay eggs and they hatch. If you wouldn't mind waiting, after I got mine I could send you both some of the offspring when I get some.

I'm hoping you visit this forum more than just dropping a link.

I have one concern with the content on your website in that you are promoting these for use as bait. If these things can explode in population very easily, wouldn't shouldn't you be concerned about introducing an invasive species?

Other than that, these seem pretty neat. I don't have the space to keep them myself especially with no fish large enough to eat them.

Which is exactly why states are begining to ban the use/possession/importation of certain crayfish species and entirely in some cases.
