How many legs does a female octopus have?

Answer 1

A female octopus will only mate once. A female will mate with (obviously) a male, she will then lay her eggs in a den. She will not leave the den until the eggs have hatch. By the time the eggs hatch, the female will have died of starvation.

Answer 2

All octopus have the same amount of legs and are widely considered to have 8 legs however they actually have 6 , the other 2 are arms :)
