Note: It's not uncommon for them to bury themselves when they're adjusting to a new environment or when they're stressed. As long as they have access to the necessary elements like heat, humidity, food, and water, they should be fine. Keep an eye on the temperature and humidity levels to ensure they...

You’re taking the step in the right direction! It sounds like you are worried for your hermies, but have no fear burrowing is part of their natural behavior. Hermit crabs can take months before they resurface due to what’s called “molting”. When they are underground do your best not to disturb them,...

Hello Friends [emoji224] I am a second time “soon to be” owner of two hermit crabs who are in need of a new home. Currently, I am setting up their crabitat.
