Spat availability
Hatcheries
Updates on SRO hatchery runs are published every second month in the oyster newsletter, however spat availability can change quickly and unexpectedly. ​

The Select Oyster Company (SOCo) was established in 2004 by the NSW oyster industry to commercialise the selected lines of Sydney rock oysters. For more details, please visit the SOCo website or contact selectoysterco@gmail.com. 
Wild-caught spat directory
Many oyster farmers in NSW rely on the wild-catch of spat. While some farmers catch their own and grow out to market size, others buy in juvenile oysters from wild-caught spat suppliers. The Directory linked here provides a list of NSW wild-caught  spat suppliers - to update or add your details to this directory, please contact Andy Myers (andy@oceanwatch.org.au or 0488656366).
