NYC - 3 hermits need a new home
Hello - i purchased three small hermit crabs last month, not realizing that they are quite a bit more of a commitment than i remember from when i was growing up. In addition, things aren’t really stable for me right now and I plan to move soon, so I would rather give them up for adoption to someone who can take better care of them.
I’m located in NYC and can travel throughout as well as Long Island.
I’m willing to ship but might need more info and to do research to make sure I ship them safely.
Three small purple pinchers. All three shell openings smaller than an inch.
Supplies and Tank That Are Included (If Any): Right now they are in a ten gallon tank that i planned to upgrade, but I’d prefer to give them up for adoption at this point.
Adoption or Supply Fee Being Asked (If Any): FREE
Contact me via email or PM.

It is currently too cold to ship. Even overnight, temperatures are very risky for crabs.lewallenchelsey91 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 20, 2025 5:59 pmI can take them if you can ship them to Montana. I have 6 that would love new friends
Truly blessed to have incredible creatures, wonderful friends and my amazing family in my life!! I'm very thankful & grateful for all of them! www.thehealthyhermit.com

Would you be willing to wait until this frigid cold snap is done?

I'm in Philadelphia and have room to take them. I might be able to make the drive to get them. I don't have a car so I'd just have to ask my boyfriend but I'm sure he'd say yes.

I am located in Northern Vermont and would love to take your hermit crabs! I am still working on my set up and wouldn't be able to take them until mid February. I don't know how far you are willing to travel, but I could meet you in Albany. Let me know if you are still looking for a home and if this could work for you.
