ABSTRACT:
A method and device for harvesting brine shrimp eggs, wherein the method comprises the steps of positioning a concentrating funnel slightly below the layer of brine shrimp eggs at the surface level of a body of salt water; moving the concentrating funnel forward with respect to the eggs to collect a portion of the layer and pumping the slurry mixture of eggs and salt water to a porous receiving container which passes the salt water and retains the collected brine shrimp eggs. A device for implementing this method includes a platform and attached channeling structure with a receiving end and a smaller, rearward feeding end. This channeling structure includes a height adjustment mechanism for selectively raising and lowering a forward leading edge of the channeling device to a depth just below the egg layer. Plumbing hardware is provided to transport the egg and salt water slurry to a container for receiving the eggs.
