I think you can keep them, I’m pretty sure they are considered hypoallergenic pets, even if you have shellfish allergy bc you are not actually eating them.

I would leave his shell out in a shallow bowl of saltwater, maybe that will get him to come back for his shell and maybe some shrimp or some other stinky food that they like. If we can get him to come back to his shell then there could still be a chance. I am so sorry, don’t be so hard on yourself t...
