  • Oregon:
    • Permit is required.

    • Please email permit to info@lacrawfish.com.

  • When is crawfish season and what options are available during the off season?

    The typical season for live crawfish extends from December through July. Please note that the exact start and end dates can fluctuate by one to three weeks annually, depending on environmental factors.

    The peak season—the period offering the largest available crawfish and generally the lowest market prices—is typically concentrated in April and May. Similar to the general season, the timing of the peak harvest may shift by several weeks.

    Outside of the live season, we proudly provide our frozen, pre-boiled crawfish, ensuring a year-round supply for our customers.

    To receive the most current information regarding live crawfish availability, special promotions, and up-to-the-minute updates, we encourage you to subscribe to our email list and follow us across our social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.

  • What size crawfish do you have?

    This guide provides a quick reference for the size grades and their typical availability throughout the season.

    • Field Run: 18-22 crawfish per pound. Sack contains a variety of sizes, generally the best value. This size is available throughout the entirety of live crawfish season (December – July).
    • Select: 12-17 count per pound. Crawfish have been sorted for larger, more uniform sizes, which yields better meat per tail but comes at a higher price. Generally available March – June.
    • Jumbo: 12 or less crawfish per pound. Jumbo crawfish are desirable because they yield a larger piece of tail meat, making the peeling process more rewarding. Primarily available during the peak season in April and May.

  • How do I hold live crawfish?

    Live crawfish are highly perishable and must be cooked on the day of delivery.

    We strongly advise against storing live crawfish overnight. Attempting to hold the product overnight significantly increases the risk of mortality.

    Our Guarantee Policy: Our guarantee for live crawfish is strictly limited to the date of delivery. Any crawfish held overnight is done so entirely at the customer’s risk, and no refunds will be issued for live product mortality incurred after the delivery date.

    Emergency Overnight Holding Method (Not Recommended):

    While we advise against holding the crawfish overnight, the following method offers the best potential for survival, though it is not guaranteed:

    1. Spray the sack down with fresh water.
    2. Place the sack into a cooler or ice chest that is equipped with a drain.
    3. Top the sack with loose ice.
    4. Crucially: Ensure the drain remains unobstructed. Dormant crawfish submerged in standing water are highly susceptible to drowning.

    FINAL POLICY NOTE: NO REFUNDS WILL BE PROVIDED FOR LIVE CRAWFISH HELD OVERNIGHT.

    Video Instructions: 

  • What states can you not ship live crawfish?

    Due to various state regulations concerning the importation and transport of non-native species, we are currently unable to ship live crawfish to the following states:

    • Alaska
    • Hawaii
    • Illinois
    • Michigan
    • Washington
    • Wisconsin
    • Minnesota – Importation of live crawfish is prohibited. Boiled crawfish may be imported with a required, free-of-charge permit. Permits can be obtained using the direct link at /Boiled-Crawfish. Once obtained, please forward a copy to info@lacrawfish.com.
    • Oregon – Residents must obtain a Crayfish Transport Permit prior to shipment. The state assesses a fee of $14.00 per permit. The permit is valid for seven days before and after the selected date on the application. You will need to visit the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife(Opens an external site in a new window)‘s website to create an account and from there you will be able to purchase the Crayfish Transport Permit. Once the permit is purchased, please forward a copy to info@lacrawfish.com.
    • Pennsylvania – Live crawfish may only be shipped to specific commercial or institutional entities. Shipping to residential addresses is strictly prohibited.

  • What are Water Boatmen Eggs?

    During the molting season, Water Boatmen (Family Corixidae) may deposit their eggs, often referred to as “nits,” on the exterior of the crawfish, particularly near the head and eye regions. This occurrence is typically observed later in the season, after the crawfish have undergone fewer molting cycles.

    Rest assured, the presence of these eggs does not affect the quality, texture, or flavor of the crawfish meat. They are entirely safe for consumption. A proper, robust boil is sufficient to eliminate and sanitize the crawfish, ensuring a safe and enjoyable dining experience.

  • What do I do when my crawfish arrive?

    Upon arrival, it is essential to immediately open the shipping container and follow these steps to ensure the vitality of the live crawfish:

    1. Immediate Unpacking: Remove the sack of crawfish from the container promptly upon receipt.
    2. Rinse and Chill: Gently spray the sack down with fresh water, allowing the water to drain completely.
    3. Store and Drain: Return the sack to a cooler or an ice chest equipped with a functional drain. Top the sack with loose ice.
    4. Crucial Note on Drowning: Ensure that melted ice water drains freely. Dormant crawfish submerged in standing water are highly susceptible to drowning.
    5. Preparation for Cooking: The cold temperature will induce a dormant state. Prior to cooking, lightly spray the sack down with water again to “wake” the crawfish.

  • What is the species name of our crawfish?

    Procambarus Clarkii, commonly known as the Red Swamp Crawfish. 

  • What is purged crawfish?

    Our crawfish undergo a specialized purging process involving placement in holding tanks containing clean, highly oxygenated water for a period of 12 to 14 hours. This innovative technique facilitates the cleansing of the gills and a significant portion of the internal entrails.

    Please Note: While this method enhances cleanliness, it is important to understand that it does not result in the full elimination of the digestive tract contents.

    Purging Video:

  • How much crawfish should I order per person?

    We offer the following guidelines based on common dining scenarios:

    • Standard Meal: Plan for 3 pounds per person when crawfish is the primary feature of the meal.
    • Side/Appetizer: Plan for 1.5 pounds per person when crawfish is served alongside other main proteins.
    • Enthusiast Eaters: For seasoned crawfish consumers, serving sizes may increase to 5 pounds or more per person.

    Note: Individual consumption rates can vary significantly based on the diner’s familiarity with the product and personal preference.

  • What if I receive dead crawfish?

    We guarantee live arrival. A small amount of “dead loss” (less than 5%) is normal during transit. If your dead loss exceeds 5% of the total weight, please take clear photos of the deceased crawfish and contact us immediately upon receipt – must be day of delivery.

  1. Angel Estrada –

    I’ve been your customer since I ordered it has been the best .thank you for your service.

  2. Daniel Newcomer –

    Ordered for a Father’s Day surprise in Idaho. Arrived exactly when expected and the crawfish were large and in great shape. Seasoning was amazing. Would definitely order again.

  4. Zachary (verified owner) –

  5. Brett (verified owner) –

    Crawfish were alive and well when we received them. There were also plenty of BIG crawfish. Everything was great, and we will be purchasing again in the future.

  6. Raymond Allen (verified owner) –

    great product arrived on time

  7. Joshua McCombie (verified owner) –

    I was extremely skeptical about my order but the crawfish were delivered overnight, I was planning to cook them the next day so I rinsed them off to rehydrate them, put them in a different cooler with a drain plug that I left open and covered them in three bags of ice to keep them cool. Next day I put a running hose into the cooler and filled with water, agitated them several times and refilled with water, I did this four times until the water was clean and clear, the crawfish were alive and well, very large in size, and absolutely met expectations. When I cooked them I added the seasoning, bright the water to a boil, added the crawfish, once the water started to boil I set a 5 minute timer then shut off the heat and let them rest in the seasoned water for 30 minutes. I 100% recommend LACrawfish and will definitely order again!

  8. Jon (verified owner) –

    I’ve never done a crawfish boil before, but this service couldn’t have made it any easier. I called and spoke with someone who told me which delivery option would fit my needs the best (delivered to western NC), and everything worked as advertised. The party pack was everything that we needed, plus I got a cool shirt and coozy out of the deal. Thanks!

  29. chris william (verified owner) –

    Good size and all love but 2

  30. David Fowler (verified owner) –

    Very happy with this pack has almost everything you need for a crawfish boil! Only one critique would be that I wish they supplies enough seasoning for the boil as the instructions on the video calls for. I needed 3lbs total for the cook per their video and the pack only comes with 1. Not a huge deal as the additional seasoning is relatively inexpensive.

  31. Erik Young (verified owner) –

    Couldn’t be any happier with my order and your excellent customer service. Was a little worried because got the delivery on a friday and not cooking till sSunday but just put a damp cloth on top of the mud bugs with a bag of ice on top of that and cracked the lid like suggested and probably only had 10 dead when we put them in water on Sunday. you guys did a great job and delivered your product as you said you would do. Again excellent service. I will be using you again in the future and encourage any body to use you guys. Thank You again and will be diffinatly using you again in the future.

  32. Charles Rabon (verified owner) –

    Product delivered on time complete as ordered. Crawfish were alive and kicking not to mention absolutely delicious. Only place I use for buying crawfish and supplies.

  33. Larry (verified owner) –

    I ordered a 50lb party pack for a Saturday boil with family and friends in North Carolina. I usually order a value pack, but there was a 10% off sale making the party pack cheaper.
    The order arrive by noon Saturday and when we opened the sacks we found less than a dozen stills, remarkable for that shipping distance. The field run size crawfish were nice size and the seasonings were just right as usual. Our boil was a big success thanks to the quality of the products.
    Oh yeah, the T-shirt is really nice too!

  34. Jason (verified owner) –

    Showed up on time and alive and fresh

    What a fun time we had at our 20th annual K’haus Cajun Crawfish Boil! This year was the best. The Crawfish arrived via FedEx – fresh and healthy. Not one lost in transport. The select Crawfish were huge. Our friends and family loved the mixed pots of crawfish. shrimp, snow crab. Sausage corn and baby potatoes — with the crawfish being the star.

    The crawfish were a hit! The only problem is 40 pounds wasn’t enough…50 kids at the beach ate every single one (plus 40 pounds of shrimp)! Thanks again for another fun party!

  64. jacqueline –

    I have ordered from them since 2014 and they are awesome. My last order went astray in no way due to them the shipping company misdirected it. They offered and sent a new order out immediately so our plans would not be ruined. Their products are awesome and they stand behind their product. Can't get any better than that!!!!!!!!

  65. Alexis –

    I was a little disappointed. There was about 25-30 of the crawdads were crushed and or dead. I did not get the shirt or the bibs that we're supposed to come with it. Overall it was good quality crawdads. And they were delicious. I will definitely order from them again. But I don't think I will order the party pack anymore.

  66. Dylan –

    I purchased the party pack for my first crawfish boil ever and I was extremely impressed! I called customer service because I had a few questions about overnight shipping and what the approximate time of delivery would be and they were extremely helpful and friendly. The party pack arrived just before noon on Saturday and there were hardly any dead crawfish. The creole seasoning is amazing and I used the Louisiana Crawfish Co. seafood boil as well which was perfect. I would highly recommend ordering the party pack for a boil!

  67. Nikki –

    Purchased for my husband's birthday. Came with beads, a shirt, a koozie, and his favorite meal ever!! So glad we can get our favorite part of the gulf delivered to home! Will definitely order again!!

  68. David –

    Going on my 8th year in a row of ordering these party packs and they're awesome. It's become a family tradition and a neighborhood favorite. Lived in New Orleans for a year and my craving never left. Now I can have these shipped to wherever home is these days and have a taste of Louisiana whenever I want. Always good quality, size, and health on these when they arrive fresh.
