Description
Eastern Oyster can go by several names, including, Wellfleet Oyster, Atlantic Oyster, Virginia Oyster, or American Oyster.
Eastern Oysters are very popular commercially. Today, less than 1% of the original 17th-century population (when the original colonists arrived) is thought to remain in the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries. The Eastern Oyster is the state shellfish of Connecticut, its shell is the state shell of Virginia and Mississippi, and the shell in its cabochon form (polished) is the state gem of Louisana.
Did you know:
Eastern Oysters have fast growth and reproductive rates.
First mature as males, then later develop female reproductive capabilities.
An adult oyster can filter up to 50 gallons of water in one day
During cooler months, oysters can live out of the water for extended periods of time
These oysters often attach to one another, forming dense reefs that provide habitat for many fish and invertebrates.
They are sought after for their creamy white meat and firm texture with a mild, sweet flavor
