Lobsters may come in a variety of colors besides the usual blue-green, including blue, yellow, red, and white. Some even come in two colors, having half of their shell one color and the other half a totally different color. Of these only the white ones (true albinos) don’t turn red when cooked.
Lobsters exhibit ‘handedness’ . Some animals will have the crusher claw on the right side while others will have it on the left.
