Frozen Fish Trauma
December 27, 2009
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! The blizzard froze my fish! How traumatic for me!
This morning, I thought to myself, “I wonder how frozen my pond is.” I looked outside. This is what I saw.
Until the snow melts, I will never look in my backyard again.
Update: It’s alive. It hasn’t broken through its icy cell yet, but it’s moving.
Update #2: I broke the ice around the fish and it swam away. It’s alive! Alive!

I had a bucket of minnows that froze one time, and when it thawed the minnows came back to life. I’m not sure about this, but you might ought to keep it in the shade. The sun just might do an internal cook on it.
What?!?!?!? Are you trying to add to my trauma? Now I have to worry about my fish cooking in my pond? Oh well, free dinner.
Maybe it will taste like poached perch, I hear that is a tasty but elegant dish.
Ask Jameson how he thinks this one will play out.
Who?

You can go to a feed store, and get one of those stock tank heaters. It floats a hot light bulb on top of the water.
But, it’s cold outside.
Just bring the poor thing in and let it swim in the bathtub till the pond thaws out!
It’s free now. I saw it trying to swim, so I broke the ice. It swam away.
It’s basically a carp. It takes a lot to kill a carp.
I had a newt once that got out of it’s bowl, got still and dried up. I decided to give a a porcelain burial and when I flushed, it started to swim. OOPS. I did find out on the next one, if they get out dry put them in water and they get better.
Are you sure this isn’t like the turtle you had that “hibernated” with it’s eyes open and NEVER WOKE UP! The smell should have given it away.
fish are very cold blooded! Way to go fishy!
Hey IT, you are a faith healer now. Millions of people with millions of dollars are yours now.
and it all started with the fish.
I need to cash in like I did with this blog. I’m worth millions now.
I thought for sure you’d have fish sticks for dinner.
Nah…Macaroni Chicken Casserole actually.
