HCA: Hermit Crab Association

I don't like the idea of them being 1 of 100 boxes who knows what could happen

Interestingly enough I have never heard of anyone going there or of her offering local pickup. If you go a'Googling you'll see her address shows up as what looks like a house in a cul-de-sac of a ritzy residential neighborhood & while there are other businesses associated with that address I can't find anything "official" even saying there IS a crab business there.

I got my delivery. I was in the shower so it was a little chaotic so no pics yet. They appear mite free. All look great except one blueberry with a piece of leg missing. They sent an extra blue

Whoo hooo; someone finally got crabs!!!

Congrats on your delivery!!!

Cant wait to see Take your time let them get comfy.

The mail has come and gone here - ... :roll:

Even with the regular postal service they can make additional deliveries after your normal time so don't lose hope just yet

Can't wait to see pics!

Thanks for the heads up. I feel like such a kid - waiting for the door to open and getting disappointed when it's just a client too funny.

I live less than two hours away from her so that's probably why mine came so quick. Good luck lady it was super exciting unveiling them

I cant wait to see everyone's pictures. Very exciting. Lets hope for healthy crabs, that bounce right back

From my last order back in November 2013 I lost all my indos and 3 others and it was not because of me or anything I did...(Just FYI) I believe I posted about it on this thread in the past. I contacted her and she is working with me and replacing all I lost and including them with my 6pk of Blues I ordered in March.

I really only wanted blues last year and have been contacting her about them for a few years now, glad to be finally getting them, I won't be ordering anymore after this order as I have enough

I believe it's all done out of a residence, she does not have a "location" that I am aware of, I know someone posted about this before but can't remember where I seen it.

I think it is a residence.
