It changes over the lifespan of the lobster. In the first year of life, a young lobster might molt a dozen times or more. As a juvenile, he will probably molt a couple times a year. By the time a lobster is as large as the ones you see in the market, which are typically about 6-8 years old or older, they are probably molting only about once a year. As a lobster grows even older, there will usually be several years between molts.
