Caught this cray this morning.

Caught this in our pots this morning, first time I have seen one as bad as this, suprising he was still going..

Cheers

The cray had been attaked.

The cray had been attaked, and the shell area was completely missing / broken away (no fungi / rot or sheading of shell), beleive it or not it was not the noticable until we cooked him..

After a very close examination it had bite marks all over the Top and underneath and some punture wounds in the legs.. thinking a wobby maybe.. Very lucky to get away, well until it showed up in our pot... ;-)

Still dosent look that good so the 5 chooks we have had cray for breakfast.. Best feed chooks in Oz   LOL
