This beautiful girl was bought into us by a local

This beautiful girl was bought into us by a local fishermen as she was so stunning that he thought we might like to pop her on display for you lovely lot to see and to our surprise, within the first week of her being in our care - she berried up (this means she essentially got pregnant)! 🥰

Lobsters are really amazing and can kind of 'choose' when to get pregnant! So this female could have met her mate out in the wild around 12 months ago! She has decided she felt safe and happy in our care, so has chosen now as her time to get pregnant - I think she must have known we provide a great nursery here at the hatchery!🦞💙

Beautiful Lobster Moult - Did you know that in order to grow, lobsters need to shed their shell! 🦞💙

Meet our beautiful mum, Piper - named by our Hatch

Meet our beautiful mum, Piper - named by our Hatchery Placement Student @Cait_helena! 🎓

Have you noticed that Piper has one Claw bigger than the other? This is most likely because at some point she would have lost one of her Claws, which means she's had to grow it back, starting all over again!! This has resulted in the claw she grew back being slightly smaller than the other! 🦞

Also - check out that very snazzy tape! Taping the claws of our lobsters doesn't harm them, it just stops them from attacking each other (And our fingers too!) Whilst they are in the hatchery with us we feed them de-shelled mussels, so they don't need to use their claws! the colour of the tape also allows us to know which fisherman kindly bought her in! And Don't worry - When they're going to be released we make sure to take the tape off so that they can get feasting again!💙
