Thank you for your support, as I said on the interview, this is not about me, this is about us.  We have the land, we have the water and now we have a homegrown product.  City, embrace it.

Could these shrimp be raised in an above ground swimming pool?  My neighbor wants to know.
Also, what do the shrimp eat.

Jay, 

No, and Purina has rushed out a shrimp feed in 50 Lb. bags for this new industry, retailed by Agland in Canfield.  Your neighbor can learn more by searching "Ohio Shrimp."

Steve,
I think you are incorrect on that I have been touring shrimp ponds all over Youngstown and from what I can see it seems that you must grow the shrimp in a sediment filled mudhole to give the shrimp that special flavor.

Ron, has stewie been invited to tour your ponds or was he trespassing?

Raising shrimp in a pond is more than just one body of water.  There must be a source of water to supply the ponds and a way to drain the water to harvest them.

Rick,  Liberals believe all land belongs to the State, so trespassing is not an issue for them.  Recently I have posted no trespassing signs provided by the Farm Bureau.

Naaah. No trespassing needed. You can see the blighted sediment laden landscape from the public right of way.  Mmmmm bet it makes the shrimp extra tasty!
