Hello everyone! Just checking in! I apologize for being away, just busy with life. Still crabbing, of course!!! :D I will be coming on more often and updating y'all with the crabs and what's been going on.

Hello everyone, I figured I would come in and give a quick update on the status of the new build, which up until recently hadn't been decided yet. I apologize for not being on so often, or at all. In March my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer and it's been rough having to go through all of that a...

Beautiful!!!

Sorry for your losses [emoji37] But with your huge number, losses seem normal.. Hope you can quell your lil tunneler's blood lust [emoji27] Congrats on the good things at work, though! Becoming GM would be NOICE! Wish you the best!! Crabbers unite!!! Thank you, it is upsetting, especially losing th...

Just thought i'd give a quick update! Unfortunately I have not been able to finish the crab room, it all actually came to a stop when I became the Assistant Manager at work. I also have not put the 1,020gl back together, i'm a slacker. Just yesterday, I (temporarily) moved the crabs into the 217gl w...

That's very exciting. CONGRATS. I can't wait to hear about the move. Thank you! It is very exciting! .......and stressful! Kip should be on TV with that tat! Haha I always pictured a giant walk-in crab room, now it's really happening! It's the tat of my dreams too! Crab House! I love it, I think th...

Oh yes. It's the best thing ever. In my crab world that is. Also I can see my kids in the glass reflections. Two birds One stone. BAM Haha nice, well that's good! Just a quick update! I'll start moving into my new house next week. I'm still working with my uncle on getting things in order for build...

I put another chicken bone in there last night and it's gone again. That makes 3 missing chicken bones in my tank. I'm thinking someone is feasting :) love some of the ideas I've gotten from yall. My crabs are happy [emoji1] Chicken bones are definitely the way to go! It's awesome to see them tear ...

I have one of our security cameras pointed at our crabs so I can watch them during work. I love it. Not so safe for the house but I enjoy it. Haha! That's too funny, "not safe for the house but I enjoy it." My dad has mentioned this app where you can use an old cell phone as the camera, and view wh...

It was night time, it was dark, that's why you couldn't see anything. The camera is the right way, it's just not very good and doesn't have nightt vision.

Oh wow! They must love that! Kip, I read something online though that recommended not to cut up their food because of the enrichment they lose in tearing it up, is that true? I've cut mines up for years and I was just curious. They do love it! I'm not sure about that, I've never heard it before. I ...
