[8] [5] Hatchlings are considered large for sharks, reaching over 14 cm in length by the time they leave the egg case. [5] Bullhead shark eggs typically hatch after 7 to 12 months, depending on the species. [5] The female Japanese bullhead shark has been known to deposit their eggs in one location along with other females, called a "nest". [5]
From February to April, the females lay a maximum of 24 eggs two at a time once every 11–14 days, in water 2–13 m (6.6–42.7 ft) deep.

[17] At first the case is soft and light brown, and over a few days it hardens and darkens in color.
Females produce 10–16 eggs per year during late winter in July and August, though Michael (1993) noted that egg-laying may continue year-round. [1] The egg cases measure around 11 cm (4.3 in) in length, with a pair of thin flanges spiraling 6–7 times around the outside and two slender tendrils up to 2 m (6.6 ft) long at one end, used to ...

[7] [8] Hatchlings are considered large for sharks, reaching over 14 cm in length by the time they leave the egg case. [8] Bullhead shark eggs ...
Breton, a great white shark cruising the Florida coast, is 13 feet long and weighs nearly 1,500 pounds. No joke: 1,400-pound great white shark pings off Florida. His 'path' resembles shark drawing
