Rated 1 out of 5 by from Giant Pail of tiny crayfish, not injected! I ordered 80 crayfish with single injection and assumed I would get 3 or 4 groupings of 25 to 27. Instead I received one huge bucket with smallish crayfish not injected. Not happy

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Good price, but they are not really preserved. I pur 9 in ziplock bags and stored them. They began to stink up the place. So, they are not preserved. I cannot save them for next year! Very disappointed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Product I ordered several of these for our co-op. We were very pleased and will be ordering from Carolina in the future. I ordered from two different companies, and the ones from Carolina were all in tact, much larger than expected and easily to identify the parts.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Product was fine, but packaging not as expected. The crayfish were great and the odor was minimal. Described as bucket of ten, but as I ordered 7 buckets, they came in one big bucket. I was expecting multiple buckets for easy distribution. Since they were needed in three different locations, the big bucket had to be transported. Also, I still haven't figured out how to dispose of the perfect solution.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product for elementary science Just used this with our Classical Conversations group today and the kids were very engaged. Crayfish easy to handle. Slight smell, but that was expected. All in good condition, complete body intact and "clean."

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect for Cycle 1 Classical Conversations! Classical Conversations does "crayfish dissection" as a Cycle 1 science procedure. I ordered the 4" crayfish from this site and was very happy with the product. Actually, just about every crayfish was larger than 4 inches. It was very easy for the kids to see all the different parts on these.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for invert dissections I used this in a freshmen STEM biology class to demonstrate some of the anatomical differences between invertebrates and vertebrates. The students loved it and they thoroughly understood the lesson. I had them do a dissection book with all of their specimens and they turned out very nice!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Quality for Dissection We purchase the 3-4" crayfish set of 10 often. The crayfish are always firm for easier dissection. Fast shipping too.
