RED SWAMP VS WHITE RIVER CRAWFISH | Louisiana Crawfish Company

- THE TWO SPECIES YOU WILL FIND WHEN YOU ORDER LIVE CRAWFISH FROM US 🦞📦
Were you aware that the two most frequently occurring types of crawfish in Louisiana, Procambarus clarkii (red swamp crawfish) and Procambarus zonangulus (white river crawfish), exhibit distinct anatomical dissimilarities? Red swamp crawfish possess a dark red shell with black markings and sizeable, forceful claws. Additionally, they have a distinct "hump" on their backs, which is essentially a collection of muscles used for burrowing and movement. Conversely, white river crawfish possess a lighter cream-colored shell, white claws, and lack the hump on their backs.
Moreover, these anatomical differences between the two species influence their preferences for habitats. Red swamp crawfish thrive in slow-moving bodies of water, such as swamps, bayous, and rice fields, and can withstand low oxygen levels, which make them suitable for survival in warm, stagnant water. In contrast, white river crawfish prefer fast-moving streams and rivers with higher oxygen levels, and they have a habit of burrowing into sandy or rocky riverbeds, which provides protection from predators.
At Louisiana Crawfish Company, we take great pride in providing both of these types to our customers, along with a broad selection of other crawfish items to satisfy their cravings!

Are they mini lobsters really ? Noob asking.
@@Bando-fx4mf different completely
Which taste the best?

Which one tastes better
Love me some crawfish, any day of the week...
I’ve never tried crawfish, really wanna try a crawfish boil!
@@abdulwadood.8I tried it and it was AMAZING! I don't know how to eat it though. I heard you got to suck it to get the meat out but I couldn't.
It made me wanna try sea food boil in general!
@@micheal5743 you break the body in the mid section where the tail and the main shell meet. Then you pinch the meat at the end of the tail releasing it from the shell and use your teeth to pull out the meat in one pull. Then if you’d like you suck the hole where you broke the crawfish in half for flavor(the head section not the tail)
@@Phlyinhigh yeah I knew the breaking part but not the rest! Thank you for the advice
@@abdulwadood.8It is disgusting! Lots of work for very little meat that taste like fishy shrimp. Horrible! Also they look like bugs, they come from the swamp/mud (why they’re called mud bugs). They literally live in sewage. Louisiana is disgusting as it is.
That kid reaching into a mudhole and pulling out a crawfish like its a casual thing is the most "murica, fuck yeah!" Thing ive seen all week 😅
Only in LA, trust me. I used to live in Louisiana, and the neighborhood i lived in used to always have these holes. I remember grabbing a small one and screaming lol
@@whatsaeuphonium9077sometimes I forget LA doesn't just mean Los Angeles
@@whatsaeuphonium9077 I mean and in aussie also but eh
@@connorreis3320 I'm sure, considering how crazy y'all are over there lol. I'm just saying that LA is the mud bug state of the US, so it's hard to imagine crawfish over there in Australia, which I guess makes sense
@whatsaeuphonium9077 ah right my bad, we do have crawfish, call em yabbies most of the time, I think we have atleast 3 species Blue claw/red claw and the spiny crayfish or yabbie, lmk if u prefer scientific names tho. Have a look at them tho just reading up to make sure I'm not making an idiot of myself just found out we have one that's only found in Tasmania and believed to be the biggest freshwater crustacean (asyracopsis gouldi), sorry for the long paragraph half of it may not make sense, enjoy your day
I appreciate your videos. 32 years in louisilana and still learning new crawfish facts
This may be a dumb question, but I live in white river junction Vermont, could the same river (Connecticut) run from Vermont through Louisiana ? 🧐
@@UncannyLivingThey're in a different watershed so no. White river in vermont goes to Connecticut river and that flows into the Atlantic on its own.
Well havs somrbtingz. Teac # lh
Same here!👌🏾🤣
Knows his crawfish fo sho
bussin
What am I missin gang I can’t eat stuff like that 😭😭😭
@@Xenobklu you’re missing a whole world of flavor my man, unless you’re allergic, I’d go with it, lol
Got that "sleepin on the blacktop" instrumental goin i like it
Respect for hearing that
I knew it as soon as i heard it. I was more curious about the so g at first and thought out loud “Is that the song about the coyote with a cigarette?”
I was wondering if anybody recognized it
its official im liking every one of this guys videos no nonsense, easy to understand, and very informative.
I had no idea about crawfish boil but this channel popped up in my algorithm few days ago.
This is really high-quality video with nice photography and edit, and I would definitely like to try it! 👍
Crawfish boil goes crazy. My brother did one in Germany for his engagement party and you couldn't pull his father-in-law away from the table. Everybody loves his southern cooking over there, especially his pulled pork 🤤
Those crayfish are huge, almost thought they were small lobsters for a moment.
They are
You should see the ones in Kentucky. These are small compared them. I wonder if you can eat them also?
They taste mostly the same, but like the White River more. Bc of the softer shell, easier to peel.
What does crayfish taste like? Is it close to crab?
@@sapphirejones7302 It is completely unique. Closest comparison is shrimp, but it has a denser and meatier texture more like lobster. And of course the main flavor is the flavor of the boil they are put in lol
@@sapphirejones7302 yea like shrimp and lobster had a baby and it’s uncle was a fish
@@longschlongjohnson6470 yes
@sapphirejones7302
Freshwater Crawfish/Crayfish taste very close to ocean lobster, just sweeter.
Sometimes you just need to watch a southern man explain different breeds of crawfish to you with a kickin' guitar in the background.
I’ve never been to Louisiana, and I’ve never seen much less eaten a crawfish. But your video are awesome and your business is cool! All the best!
You got me at “crawfish.”
Your video is more informative than my school, thanks
Holy cow Mad respect for that lad it reminded me of my childhood chasing river shrimps
That kid has balls to reach in there like that
Wsg kingg
I'm having a boil tomorrow and you really inspired the whole meet up. Much love, god bless you and your family man 🙏 ❤
How was the boil?
Hey I'm a little late but I don't have a car. I'm here so when does it start?
They both look delicious .
I love me some bell river dip water crawfish I had a blue one as a kid and a white one we caught in traps with my cousin down there but that was back in the early 80’s when I was 8 or 9 years old. Man I love being born and raised here not having to pay for crawfish !!
Yea that’s true it would suck to be born in a state where you have to pay for crawfish AND find women outside the family to sleep with.

@@mobilegameclips5628 woke up and chose "fuck everybody" ehh? Lol
I love how Crawfish just grab onto anything and dangle from it.
Good ol’ Louisiana Crawfish. One things for sure, I can’t get enough of ‘em!
Same
As someone who hasn't caught, ate or seen a crawfish live, i enjoy this chann for some reason 😂
Imagine just being picked up by a a giant hairless bipedal monkey creature and he starts comparing you you to a random person that's almost the same as you
Bought from you all for a few years, glad to see you on YT
Bros just spewing crawfish life and were loving it
Man I love crawfish it’s definitely worth the effort to crack open that tail meat yummy stuff I’m gonna have to get some boiled crawfish soon
LOVE LOVE LOVE Crawfish as someone who grew up and lived in South MS I MISS Crawfish living in East TN
I think we all wanted to know which one tastes better…😢
Sleeping on the blacktop was a great choice for background music
I love them both ...they are a beast....nice Cath.....🙏🙇🙏📿🐐
Hey sleeping on the blacktop is a really good tune!
Crawfish are some chill dudes.
We love you for growing, such beautiful crayfish..
I love the use of sleeping on the blacktop
Sleeping on the black top is a good song for this type of content👍
For those who might be wondering about the name of the song because of the beat in the background, it's sleeping on the blacktop by colter wall
Thanks for the education!
Colter Wall, hell yeah! I think this is Sleeping on the Blacktop. Great song!
Love that your playing Colter Wall! He’s amazing and Western Canadian!
Big fan 🎉
That drop down that hole gave me a super Mario feel😂
😂 I loved the “yeee” down the hole he goes
Love the background music, colter wall is one hell of a musician
i've got a pet specter crayfish, love that little guy! he's real funny
Cool!
That's great and all but what I would really love to know is: which of them tastes better?
They taste the same
Cool little bugs. I imagine your farming system is pretty sustainable too
Always funny to hear this song played over something southern
Idk how now I'm following and being recommended by stuff from this channel 😂 but damn... these shorts making me hungry. 😂😂
Thank you for the side by side comparison. I was given a hitchhiker crayfish that came in a bag of feeder fish.
It's a dead ringer for that white river one you have there.
Yo I love ur vids so much
That’s incredibly interesting man!
The White River Crawfish back in the mudhole go *wheee* 😂
“COME ONE JIMMY DONT LET GO” *falls* “ AAAAAHHHHHHH”
Love Colter Wall, great jam
Oh man this is getting me excited for our crawfish Boil coming up this weekend. Can't wait to enjoy them little buggers
Awesome tutorial. Thank you!
Used to go catching crawfish in the creek next to my old house growing up, but never to actually cook and eat them since they were very small. There was maybe one decent sized one i'd ever caught, but I was more or less just fascinated with how they looked tbh lol. Really do wanna eat them, but it's really hard finding good sized crawfish in Eastern Kentucky.
the lil “wee!” as the crawfish went back into his hidey hole 😂
Thanks Mr. Crawfish 🦞
Those are some big ass crawfish my guy
Good ! Show and tell ! Video.
I love this song.
I’ve never seen crawfish this large!
I feel like i can watch he talk about crawfish for hours
I'm in WA state. Ours are so small! I had no idea they were so big down there!
Bro you are the best I love watching your education and know how
I love how he holds them like action figures
Used to go crawfish hunting in the canal behind our trailer park when they drained it in the fall. Never knew there were different species, just that they were delicious and free.
Niceeeee bro.. informative ❤❤❤
Aaaaaaaand both tastes amazing in a boil! 😂
Those are some big ass crawfish!
I like crawfish from rivers and such
That crawfish in the end got sent to tge backrooms bro 💀
Great song choice
My favorite fishing when I was we a kid- go out to the creek next to grandmas house and hook a line with a little strip of bacon and dangle it front of an underwater hole. It never occurred to me to just reach in and grab it
- Thanks for the info. 🦂🦂
Baby crawfish fried crispy,,mmmmh,,tomato sauce,,spicy sauce,,perfect lunch for hungry,,,hhu
That's actually the worst way to cook them
The "Weee" did it for😂. Love it😂
Very informative informative!
I wonder if the meat of both tastes the same?
In Texas you would never stick a limb in a hole like that.
I bet they have Water Moccasins there as well!
@@jamesspalten5977 ya man living in between west and east texas man is something
Love the videos!!! Looks like you might know a thing or two about Crawfish!!
me and my mom used to go to a creek where these things lived, i was like 6 and watched helplessly as some little girl tried to pet one
They both taste good in a pinch
That kid got some balls on him stickin his hand in there
Dang that’s some big crawfish
They're decent size...make a trip to Louisiana and go to mud bug festival
Aww I was hoping he was gonna have them fight!!
Song is an instrumental version of sleeping on the blacktop by colter wall btw
This man doesn’t feel disgustness
My pet crawfish watching me from her tank: 😰
Sunshine beating on the good times. Moonlight raising from the grave. String band playing worn out honkey-tonks. Pretty young thing going dancing in the rain. 🎶
He didnt say which one tasted better
I'm from Louisiana, not far from where this guy is, I've eaten crawfish all my life, they all taste the same...there's more than just these 2 species though...all are delicious...
There's over 300 species in the US
Good info....thnx
Ngl I was expecting them to fight when I Read VS
Love to have crawfish any day of the week!
Colter wall back music 😎😎
I enjoy getting your videos
Fact is I know what you’re talking about
My daddy and my uncle each had a fish market back in the 70s and 80s
We used to make trips to the coast and buy seafood 🦞🐢

So basically red river crawfish are the upgraded version
No
He never mentioned red river
These are big crawfish now to me this is worth the work it takes to get the meat out. Ive had a crawfish before but it was very small and yes it was good but i didnt like the fact i had to do any affect for a little piece of meat but this right here more affect but of course more meat now this is more worth it to
Me then the other one that i got. I will try these crawfish someday
You don't want big ones...you want medium
White river holdin red swamp for his dear life
*Is Crawfish Caviar a thing? Just wondering. 🤔🤷🏾♀️*
I Love the Red 110% love it
