OK SoMDer's - I'm interested in these little creatures. A girl was just telling me about them and comparing them to Gooey Ducks (I saw that Dirty Jobs episode). So what I am wondering is:
1. Where you buy these things
2. How much they cost
3. How you prepare them
4. Anything else you want to tell me...
Couple of years as a Marine Biologist and a few more years breeding shellfish for commercial harvesting tends to imprint on ya..... We tried very hard to keep them alive, not profitable to kill 'em.
I spent a summer working for the Dept. of Natural Resources Shellfish Div. on one of their many oyster projects. They had me growing algae to feed the little buggers we were breeding/setting. It was a blast!
