Resurrection Christian Academy Live Salmon Hatchery Feed

Now this is pretty exciting, at the start of our 5th year we have a School that puts a live feed on the internet now everyone can go on line & watch as the Salmon grow until the release in April or May.

Salmon Eggs are hatching & the Alevin look good

Wednesday I got a call that one of the Schools thought their aquariums was leaking so I went to check it out & water was coming from under the Aquarium & running onto the floor, so I siphoned all the water out into pails, dumped the egg tray into a separate pail, set up another one, filled it back up with water, set the egg tray back up & transferred the eggs & alevin into the new one. About half the eggs were hatched.

Thursday was a trip to Formosa, Mildmay & Walkerton to start removing their egg trays as all the Eggs have hatched.

Friday was Teeswater & Wingham’s turn, most of the schools only had 1 to 3 eggs that didn't hatch & needed to be removed but a couple schools still had 8 to 12 eggs left to hatch & the egg trays were left in until next week, 1 Alevin had died & was all white & that’s the  1^st time I’ve seen that.

LHFC School Salmon Hatchery Program has expanded to 21 School's

Now that was a long day, started out driving to Port Elgin to meet Brian at the Salmon Hatchery to get the Eggs for some of our school's. After stopping at School's in Walkerton, Mildmay, Formosa, Teeswater, Wingham, Brookside, Goderich, Ethel, Waterloo & Guelph a total of 15 school's, 513 km & 11.5 hours later I was back in Teeswater to unpack the vehicle & relax for the rest of the evening. We have 6 new School's this year & some very excited Students.
