Here’s a photo of the trout eggs after 46 days. We have 4 hatch lings , and more are coming. It’s hard to see but you can make out the brown spots. those are hatched trout. The eggs you can kind of see the eye spot on them .
The eggs are slightly red to whitish in color and are all set to hatch. I’ve only lost a few to bacteria, which is common.
The new born will live off their yolk for 7 -14 days, mostly resting on the bottom of the netting hatch chamber in our tank. After which they should start to move up to the surface, which indicates they are ready for food. We have 3 stages of food – 0, 1, and 2. We start with 0, and work our way up to 2 over the next few months.
