    My 86-year-old mother loves shrimp but she refuses to buy anything that's from a farm like situation. She only wants them caught in the wild. I told her it's unsustainable and she's starting to see that she can't always buy what she wants. Hopefully after she sees this she may change her mind a little. I'd eat these shrimp.

  • In this part of the video she mentioned that in the beginning it's a trial and learning process and I remember years ago when I asked my father if I could raise pigeons not for consumption but to raise Homer's as I went to the library to do some research and there are 3 different types 1 is the homer,2 is the fancy or show bird and 3 the eating type called squab.And my father taught me how to build the pigeon coup, built a square for the babies,straw for there stuff,and use it for feterilizer,and bird seed and lettuce to feed them. But I was very glad what my father had taught me to take care of my pets. How to build a home for them against predators like rats and mongoose as I could hear them in the coup,flying around. But my father knew this already but they were safe and sound.besides the pigeons I had a garden to keep myself busy to learn about nature how it works. Made me a better person as later in my life I got married and had children.as my father taught me in life
  • You guys are Gods with no price, real as real can be !!!
  • Baby shrimp need generational biofilm. new tanks have high attrition rates , established tanks have enough detritus and biofilm to support the tiny babies that cant break down food yet.
  • Gosh, that was refreshing and extremely enjoyable to watch. Thank you!❤

  • PBS, please make an episode to spread awareness about the Alaskan trawling industry. Last year 9 ORCAS died in trawl gear . In addition to hundreds of millions of pounds of halibut, salmon and sablefish bycatch!

    Huh ol' Martha's out of the slammer? It's nice to see she's working off some of her community service under probation by doing some work for PBS.
