Jawfish lay strange eggs. This episode is not explicit. Story by Kenneth Eckle, Music by Mx Michael https://www.patreon.com/freckle TRANSCRIPT Jawfish lay jawful(?) eggs.
Jawfish, especially the Yellowhead Jawfish, are a type of animal called a Mouthbrooder. As you may have guessed, this means that the male jawfish will fertilize, and then collect all something-like-400 eggs into his mouth, where he'll wait for about a week, starving himself because, turns out, it's hard to eat when you're already stuffed to the, um, gills, with caviar. Then, the eggs all hatch in there, which must be just the strangest sensation. I've only ever fit, at most, like 30 grapes in my mouth at once, and when they popped, they were not alive.
