HCA: Hermit Crab Association

Roflol! Skymall that was hilarious. I'll have to try that with my crabs!

When I first got Keo, any movement scared him. Now after having him a few months he is the most tame crab I've ever had. If I take him out of the tank he comes out instantly and the only way to get him back in his shell is to very lightly tap him. :lol: I mean I can hold him and even pet him for pet...

My crab is very shy also, but he seems to be getting used to me peeking in or changing food/water ect. I think that over a longer period of time they get used to the fact that you're not a predator.

I don't know what it means exactly, but I've seen my crab wipe her eyes a couple of times too. I just assumed she was cleaning them.

I didn't know crabs could eat those! There's always tons of them around here in the spring.
