The alevin (baby trout) have begun their "swim-up" phase! Having absorbed their yolk sacs, they are now searching for food. We’ve started sprinkling food into the tank 2–3 times a day. If you look closely, you can see the stripes beginning to show on their sides.

We were initially concerned about the alevin that escaped early, but we've counted around 20 swimming near the bottom of the tank. It will be interesting to see how they adapt after getting out so soon!

5/6 Volleyball Practice is cancelled on Monday 2/10 due to Jay Peak Ski Trip.

The next scheduled practice is Wednesday 2/12 from 3-4pm.
