Day 22: interesting behaviors

4/22/2015

Some of the octopuses seem to know when it is feeding time, indicated through their behavior. They gravitate towards the top of their containers in anticipation of the coming meal.  It is hard to determine if any are developing personalities but certain individuals show more explorative behavior than others that prefer to hide. This is especially apparent during feeding and when the lights are first flipped on in the room.
