Sept 21, 2010: Yellow Lobster

This lobster (labstah) is yellow.
Maybe it's pre-buttered.
Maybe it's chicken... of the sea.



Quote:
Yellow lobsters are rare, but not unheard of. When one was brought ashore in Massachusetts last year, several experts said its coloration came from a gene carried by both parents that occurs in about one in 30 million lobsters.

She said she did some research on lobsters with unusual colors and found estimates varied widely. For blue lobsters, she said estimates ranged from one in a million to one in 20 million. She thinks one in 4 million seemed to be the most cited figure.
