What is the timeline for raising trout in a classroom?
The general timeline for TIC in New York is that classrooms set up coldwater tanks in September, get brown or brook trout eggs in October or November, and raise the trout over the school year. The fingerlings are then released in the spring, into appropriate streams and rivers. It is important to note that each state works on a slightly different timeline; it depends on local climate and the species of trout you raise.
