Through testing and observation, scientists have recorded the following characteristics of Maxoids. Maxoids reproduce via sexual reproduction. One parent carries the Maxoid eggs for 12 weeks before they hatch. After hatching, juvenile Maxoids continue to grow for seven months. To acquire energy for growth, Maxoids consume a peculiar liquid substance native to the planet Moby. The Maxoids' cells use this energy, as well as large amounts of water, to carry out important functions. The Maxoids are sensitive to changes in internal temperature. Sometimes they dig holes and lay in them to cool down if they get too warm.
