This process happened over the course of 10 minutes. I captured it on video and here are the pictures.

That was absolutely amazing!! What a great video! I have been eating lobsters all my life and often wondered about this process of molting and how it actually happens, Now I know. Seriously though, You should send this in to one of the major stations like National Geo. or Animal Planet. I’ve yet to see something like this done on any program. You’ve got a winner here! Very informative. Thanks for the piece!!!!!

If that was a blue crab the whole thing would be pan fried and placed between in a toasted sandwich with a little mayo. Can you do that to a jelly lobster?
