Generally Lobsters live to about 40 or 50 years. Lobsters living to the age of 100 is not uncommon. George the lobster (20 lbs) has been recorded at 140 years old. Guinness book of world records measured a lobster at 44.4 pounds which could have been far older. <br /><br /> It takes approximately seven years (depending on the water temperature) for a lobster to grow to legal harvesting size (1-1 1/4 lb.).
A 1-pound female lobster usually carries approximately 8,000 eggs. A 9-pound female may carry more than 100,000 eggs. The female lobster carries the eggs inside for 9 to 12 months and then for another 9 to 12 months externally attached to the swimmerets under her tail by a glue-like substance. When the eggs hatch the mother releases them by fanning her swimmerets. The photo to the right shows a lobster egg under the microscope.
