Just curious, At what age does everyone sell their baby shrimp at ??

Thanks

Hi Dreamspirit, I've never sold shrimp so am not qualified to answer, but unless someones who has comes in, I'll try an educated guess.

I would supposed it would depend on the kind of shrimp. Let's say for Cherries, probably at about the 1.5 - 2.5 month mark. I think though that it would be more their size and not their exact age that would be more relevant, as some shrimp grow faster than others.

Especially when shipping shrimp, you want to make sure that they can at least be seen by a novice. Lots of times, people have no clue they are so tiny!
