Oysters, Anyone?

Tommybuckets and I were out. He got MOST of the targets. I froze so left early. How do you like the size of this 300 year old oyster?

You eat ONE of these and you wouldn't want anything else!

Love em!! We get our oysters from Coos Bay Oregon. Ummmmmmmmm!!!

I’d hate to buy those by the pound.

This one is about 10" long, or a little longer.

I can only imagine what the waterways were like when the first Europeans arrived. If I see any shells, especially like that, Im definitely swinging a coil around there

How do you date an oyster?

 

[Raider19962]

My son describes oysters as "rocks with bronchitis".

 

[smokeythecat]

How do you date an oyster? Easy - a nice dinner and roses. But seriously, it was found in a 300 year old trash pit Tommy dug. He got some nice stuff and will be posting it. I mainly watched this time. He dug this one up.

As I pressed the "Enter" key I realized how that was going to sound. I would expect no other reply. Well played Smoky. And the trash pit answer was good also.

Wonder if it produced a giant pearl?

 

[smokeythecat]

I'm not sure Chesapeake Bay oysters have done many pearls. All the oysters I ate over the years I never found one.

Amazing size! This was the land of natural plenty at one time.

 

[smokeythecat]

And the average age at death was about 38.

 

[GaRebel1861]

I love them but, I don't think that I could eat a dozen of those.

 

[smokeythecat]

You try eating a dozen of these and you would explode!

 

[Kace]

That's Amazing!! Great Find.

We got a few we didn't destroy with the shovel. Lots of fun.

Lmao. A dozen roses. Too funny.
