A bushel of crabs is how many pounds?

A bushel and a pound are two different measurements! While both are generally dry units of measurements the bushel is used mostly in agriculture. A bushel of wheat and a bushel of corn have two different weights as do apples and oranges, where as a pound is a pound. The only way you're going to figure out the weight of a bushel of crabs is to cram as many crabs into a bushel basket as you can (good luck with that) and weigh it. Then again it depends on the type of crabs as well.
