HCA: Hermit Crab Association

Yay!! Mr EnDoh came back up today; he’s been down since December 14! I couldn’t be more pleased, and from what I’ve seen so far his colors are incredible! I’ll post a ‘color pic’ as soon as he decides to get cleaned up! Now we just gotta wait for Princess and Mr S!

Yay! He's so handsome!

Thanks guys! He’s just been snoozing all day, hasn’t moved much, so about as expected. I’m betting he will drink and eat a bit soon, and that should get him perked back up again! I can’t wait to get a good look at him, but he’s not ready to be bothered yet. So I’m just waiting til he’s back to his normal first. He’s such a handsome fella!

<<—- that violet color on the inside of his Bp is kinda how he is on all his inner surfaces- it’s so pretty! That’s as close to the real color as I can make it anyway, according to my phone’s settings... Can’t wait to share a better pic of him when he’s out more!

He’s so cool, that spot is almost fluorescent. What species is he?

Thanks! He really is vibrant right now!
He is an Indo, or Coenobita brevimanus

So beautiful!

Thank you! He’s been slow to come back around but he is. Now that he’s eaten some, rested, drank some, rested, foraged, and- you guessed it! Rested some more... he’s starting to act and move around more like his usual self. He had me a little concerned at first but he’s just fine now I think. He needs a species buddy! If anyone ever finds a ‘spare’ brevi for me, we would both be so glad to see them. I’m not sure how long it’s been since he’s seen his own species.... (I adopted)

And he’s being a picky eater... Whatever the little red/purple bits are, he wasn’t interested, bc he otherwise emptied the section! Hmm... and I think the pepper seeds with it are new too! I had put a mix, along with something else in that section I just gotta remember what cause I’m curious!
I guess I’ve never noticed that sort of thing in there bc there has always been more than one crab- until now. They all 3 went to molt within one week of each other.


*i decided to edit my own rather than add yet another reply and bumping the thread... but I finally had a health check and snapped a few pics. He climbed on me a bit after but I didn’t have the chance to bother him with it then. Such a big baby he is. In the good way.

Beautiful! Glad he's back to acting more like himself!

I can’t ever get over his BP! My sweet little crabby nephew! Now tell your sister to get her big shelled butt back up here too! Your cousin Shade came up a day or two after you! <3

He's so pretty, I love his coloring.

And one more bc I can’t help it- he was shell shopping tonight, and this one was so pretty on him I had to turn the light on and bug him. Sorry ‘Misser EnD’oh!’
