The male has a pouch inside is covered with a soft tissue and arranged in compartments, to keep each egg separately. The male fertilizes the eggs and cares for about three weeks. During this time, he flash the bag, and most surprisingly, nourishes the eggs through a network of capillaries in the bag with his own ‘placental fluids’.
