🦞🤏If you’ve never done it, holding a live crawfish can be a bit tricky, but with the right technique, you can avoid getting pinched. First, make sure you grab the crawfish firmly but gently. You don't want to squeeze it too hard or it may feel threatened and try to pinch you. Use your thumb to hold down its pincers and your fingers to support its body. Next, approach the crawfish from the back, so it doesn't see you coming. This will help keep it calm and reduce the risk of it feeling threaten
