Orange lobster!


Today I will be picking up a rare orange lobster recently shipped to Hampton, and it will be in our touch tank! A recent news article about two of the specimens in York gives some information about where they get their crazy color. This one is a third, which came from the same population near Prince Edward Island as the first two. Come check it out!
