1. Every oyster has the ability to be male or female.
While they can only be one or the other at any given time, oysters have the ability to change their sexes. They have gonads that make eggs as well as sperm! At least once during their lifetime, an oyster will change from male to female, and vice-versa.
2. They are very fertile.
A female oyster can release over a million eggs in a spawning season.
3. Oysters breath like fish.
Oysters have both gills and mantle to breathe through. They also have a small, 3-chambered heart that pumps colorless blood.
4. Oysters "are what they eat."
The color of an oyster is decided by its diet. The meat is generally light beige, light gray, or off-white. Their diet usually consists of plankton, animal waste, and decayed plants, along with any small particles that they suck in.
5. You should only eat oysters in months with an "R"...
...IS NO LONGER TRUE!! The reason for this was because a long time ago, when refrigeration methods were not good like they are today, it was difficult to keep oysters in the Summer months.
Tuckers Shuckers has 2 "R"s in it's name, so oysters must be twice as good here!
