Octopus with Hatching Eggs
Loading...
Uploaded by HumboldtMike on Jan 31, 2009
We were lucky enough to be at the Humboldt State University Marine Lab in Trinidad, California today when a red octopus (Octopus rubescens) had eggs hatching. You can see some of the newly hatched octopus swimming around. Also shown is another red octopus and its color can be seen changing darker/lighter red.

Did the eggs hatched? by the way how do u tell the difference between male and female and how do u breed them?

@won0312 Yep, those are the eggs that hatched. Males of this species have an enlarged sucker on their dorsal arms -- it's hard to tell them apart. All I know about breeding them is that the people I know who have tried were unable to raise the young.

I've heard that they die after their eggs hatch in the wild (from starvation)
How well do they fair through egg hatching in captivity?

The octopus died this week -- around June 9. She was feeding on crabs though.
