As of reading your comment he's lost two limbs now. One being his big claw. A friend of mine who has owned a lot of crabs told me that it could be a number of things, including his age and how long he was in the terrible conditions I found him. So maybe she meant this PPS you're mentioning?RiNiKy506 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 06, 2019 11:00 amIt sounds like Pete may be suffering from PPS if he has dropped a limb, when they molt they shed their whole exoskeleton. You sound like your off to a great start with them but sometimes they’ve just been through too much before they make it home to us. Offer him some healing foods like bee pollen and raw organic honey to give him an energy boost. Have you looked at any of the care sheets or guides?
I'm holding out so much hope that it's just a surface molt and that my little one eyed boy will be ok. It just hurts to watch him sit there not moving and making me feel like I've not done enough!
I'm hoping he's eating at all honestly. I know he ate some strawberry the other day when I set it next to him in the tank, but it wasn't much. I know hermits might not eat much since they're small? But otherwise I'm not sure. I've got some ordered foods coming in on Monday that I got off some of the threads here that I'm hoping maybe will help and I saw the diagram above and what you suggested I might try to give him some but I'm not sure how to get him to eat it. Is putting it down in front of him probably the best option?
