🥚Snow White Egg Extraction 🥚

Behind the scenes of shrimpkeeping! 🎥 Today we're diving into one of the most delicate processes in the shrimp hobby - egg extraction from our pristine Snow Whites specimens! 🥚✨

Unfortunately, shrimp can be fragile 😢, but here are some tips that can help to salvage your shrimp’s babies:

✨ Process Highlights:
• Carefully extract Snow White females onto a separate container(clear preferred - eggs can be multicolored)
• Precision extraction using specialized tools - pipette and tweezers
•*It is important to extract all eggs SEPARATELY to avoid rotting debris from the mother*
• tumbling setup for extracted eggs to mimic gentle movements(as if the eggs were still in the womb)🐣
• Maximum care for both mother and offspring 🤍

Pro tip: Successful egg extraction often requires optimal timing - eggs are preferably to be at the right developmental stage, showing small semblance of embryos, for a more optimal survival rate! 🔬

This technique helps preserve your colony and future generations and improvement of your genetic lineage! ❄️
