When do lobsters mate?
A female lobster mates primarily
when she is in the soft-shell state right after she has shed
her shell (molted). Female lobsters can carry
live sperm for up to two years. At any time she may decide
to fertilize her 3,000-75,000 eggs. By law, a female
lobster carrying eggs must be thrown back if it is
caught.
