Les œufs peuvent être transportés quand ils sont verts (fraîchement fécondés), soit dans les premières 24 à 48 heures après la fécondation. Pendant cette période, où ont lieu les premières divisions cellulaires, l'œuf n'est pas fragile [...] Il devient ensuite très fragile aux chocs, pendant la période où l'embryon commence à se former, soit de 20 à 50 jours selon l'espèce de salmonidé et la température de l'eau. Plus tard, à partir du moment où les œufs sont œillés, ils peuvent de nouveau être transportés sans danger, et en principe jusqu'à l'éclosion. [...] Les œufs œillés se prêtent mieux aux transports de longue durée que les œufs verts [...] 2, record 1, French, - %26oelig%3Buf%20vert
