lol, i understand that they don't literally have "babies". I knew that they dropped eggs I was just using layman's terms.
Having babies (country boy terms)=dropping cysts(smart people talk) lol sorry for any misunderstanding.

Saw your thread on ferry shrimp. Interesting except the pics don't show. Would like to see them. I am currently in the process of a vernal pool study in central California and would like to hear about your techniques for photographing small objects like ferry shrimp and the like.

Let me know.

before you get too involved in any scientific study you should first discover that they are called fairy shrimp not ferry shrimp. I know proper spelling doesnt mean as much these days as it did in the past.
There is a difference.
