Question of the Day: Why are the trout so lazy? They are just laying around...
In nature right now, the baby trout, or alevins, would be working hard to not get eaten by other fish and predators. Their natural instinct is to burrow down into the gravel or the mud in the rivers that they live and feed off of their yolk sac. Once their yolk sac is used up, they will start to swim more and will be ready to eat food. That should be in the next week or so.
Very cool!
