That's what I thought, but the egg hatched three weeks ago. She is still activte and is now eating some and otherwise appears healthy. I'm new to cephalopods; is this normal behavior for a mommy octo?
Also according to Hanlon and Messenger (Cephalopod Behavior), some species of octopi breed and rear mature eggs several times.
