Specially selected for size
Our crayfish are specially sorted, selecting only the large specimens for consumption. These Dutch wild-caught American crayfish are many times larger than Spanish and Chinese farmed crayfish. More importantly, our crayfish are not farmed, treated with antibiotics or added with E numbers.

About the American crayfish in the Netherlands
In the Netherlands you can find a number of species of red crayfish native to North America. Among them, you can find the ‘Procambus clarkii’ (red American crayfish), ‘Procambarus acutus’ (striped American crayfish) and the Faxonius virilis (knobbed American crayfish). These species have displaced the European crayfish as imports of the American specimens have caused a crayfish virus. The American crayfish is insensitive to this virus.
