HCA: Hermit Crab Association

Xenocrab gave me the suggestion to check out a local organics store in my “crab safe?” thread, I’m going to look into it more. Definitely sounds like a great selection and cheaper prices, I hope we have something like that here. Rod♡Salty♡Bob♡Squirt♡Crabina »-♡-> Our Purple Pinchers <-♡-« Who♡Fearle...

It's good that you ask and not take chances! I love how everybody is always here to help. We just gave AJ a medicinal bath thanks to the help of people who have had injured crabs. We wouldn't have known how to help him heal up without help. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk Definitely! I love my ...

Thank you so much! I did some research and found that the ones were in hibiscus family and I know some things can have a few different names but I didn’t find any info that I felt safe enough to get them without asking. I’m going to stop back over and grab both bags then. Thought it was pretty decen...

If I don't see it on the list, I avoid it. I don't want to accidentally poison them or make them sick. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk Probably a good idea, was hoping maybe someone knew since it wasn’t on the list. Thank you.

Saw these at local pet store. I know the others are safe but are pink cornflowers, blue cornflowers, and red cornflowers ok for hermit crabs? Also are blue mallow flowers crab safe? Thank you in advance. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190323/551d7d45ccf4fa809dce201a0cf91bf7.jpg https://uploads.t...

Yep, he's totally a PP! Some pics in the first lot were giving me Indo vibes, so I had a hard time being 100% sure. That’s what I was thinking too! I couldn’t tell, those eyes and that bp had me confused, I thought he could possibly be an Indo. I think I wanted him to be an Indo. Lol! He sure is a ...

I think it would be cruel, I know they were once wild but any time in captivity they are spent being fed and taken care of. They might not be able to find food like they once used to or even being used to being fed all the time, might not be able to forage enough in the wild like they once used to. ...

I don’t have any advice but I’d like to wish him a speedy recovery. <3

Yes! Please continue, I loved it! I love thinking about how they would react to things in a human-like perspective. It’s even better getting to read it from someone else.

So amazing! That’s quite the project for the little one, I can’t believe how strong they are. It really interests me how they modify their shells. Do you have any video of him/her doing that? I’d love to see how they modify their shells. Thank you for posting pictures, I love seeing the captive bred...

Nice upgrade! Looks nice, I bet they are so happy! [emoji3590]
