From Von Bayer to Bon Voyage…..✌️🐟
American shad are growing, hatching, and heading home!! Using the Von Bayer method (and V-shaped trough) of counting eggs, it’s estimated that North Attleboro National Fish Hatchery raised and stocked over 8 million shad to their native waters this season! The North Attleboro NFH plays a key role in protecting and restoring these migratory fish.

Video description: A large amount of water and fish are seen flowing into a holding tank before short consecutive clips of shad eggs are shown in a V-shaped trough, enlarged and wiggling on screen, with darkening and developing eyes, floating around and hatching, before finally showing a water body where the view dives underwater to show shad fry swimming in nature.
