Re: All 3 crabs buried in same place?!

I've had Cinamon and Pelago since March of this year, and both were pretty active so I don't think they're destressing, and I've had the third for well over a year as well. Both have come up, but about a day later one of them went down again and has been down for maybe two weeks so I'm assuming its ...

Ok well for the last week or so my littlest PP, Cinamon, has been buried down in a corner of the tank (i think) molting. This would be her first molt with me so I do not know what to expect. But now when I woke up this morning I found that two of my other crabs had dug down right next to her!! I am ...

The Great Escape

This actually happened quite a few years ago when I was a kid, but I think it is entertaining and wanted to share:) It was the first hermit crab I had ever owned, a medium PP who I think was named Orangey (like I said I was pretty young) :) but I used to let him crawl around my room when I cleaned h...
