I have Trout, Blue Trout, Saxony and Brown Trout. Not sure if I will be selling eggs next spring but you can certainly check back with me then. I was first on the list for Holderread's adult runners when I got my Trout, Blue Trout and Saxony so I have some very nice birds. My brown trouts are...
If you have the new GQF equipment where the hatching tray is slick I would suggest that you put a paper towel or something in the bottom of it otherwise it can be too slick for them and then could end up with sprattle legs if they can't get good footing and are in the hatcher too long.

Has anyone been to the Friday night auction that they have in Pryor? I think it is the same day as Coweta's and trying to decide if it is worth trying out.
