My one experience with Rosysides (from Tishomingo county) was similar.
I lost a number of them in transit, and the remainder perished over the
next couple of days. They are either high-temperature or low-O2
intolerant, I don't know which. Or else maybe they're like brook
silversides and just die when you look-in-them.

Did you have any survivors?
