I happened across a cuttlefish egg mass while diving the other day and noticed some eggs looked deflated and empty whereas others had what looked like fully developed cuttlefish inside. Do cuttlefish normally all hatch at the same time? I"m trying to figure out what the chances of the more deflated/ripped looking eggs having already hatched vs having been eaten by something.
How long is their incubation (I saw one laying eggs yesturday and plan to keep an eye on her eggs)?
Also do your captive cuttlefish generally lay all the eggs in one place or distrubute them in a few little bundles?
Thanks for any help!
