This area is dedicated to the pioneers who have captive bred crabs, and for those who wish to learn more or attempt it themselves. Also for inquiring about the gender of your crabs.

I don't want this up publicly to be stolen.
You can put it up so it's private and share the link. The only people who will be able to view it are people who have the link.

OK thanks for that. I have never put stuff up on there so if you have any instructions that would be brilliant. right down to the url for uploading stuff to you tube.
TOTAL NEWBIE at this.

Hi Gaby, no not yet but this morning there were 3 out on the sand and just now 2 can't be found so hopefully they have dug down to do this. See my big post catch up on the last 2 days.
Cheers
Hey! I just saw your post lol, this is so exciting! You must be so anxious for them to come back up, I'd be planted in front of the setup
Your progress is amazing, great job!
Best regards

You may need to create an account on youtube, but you should just be able to login with google. Once you have an account, on the home page at the top right of the screen there is a button that says "Upload" or may just be an up arrow symbol. Click on that button and then follow the on-screen instructions to upload a video. While it's uploading there should be a box somewhere that has three options. "Public" "Private" and "Unlisted". You'll want to choose unlisted. Once the video uploads the URL will show up on-screen. Just copy that url and post it here. Good luck :)

What a wonderful Christmas miracle! How can you tell it's definitely a crab baby though, just curious, it's so new? Wow congrats

I asked Natalie Van Amstel the same thing because this one's eye stalks were not puffy like the others and they looked way more crablike. Also you can see antenna as well.
