Females reach sexual maturity when they are roughly 14 ft (4.5 m) long. They reproduce via aplacental viviparity; the eggs hatch inside the body and the babies develop inside the female's body. There is no placenta to nourish the pups. The Bluntnose Sixgill shark has litters of over 100 live-born pups. The pups are about 28 inches (70 cm) long at birth.
