Cold shells

Post by The magiduck » Thu Aug 15, 2019 1:16 am

So I've had my crabs for a month or two but I've run into a problem my crabs were inactive and their shells were cold and the heat is 80 degrees and the humidity is 70% so why are their shells cold and inactive also they are alive two are up now

What type of thermometer/hygrometer are you using? Analog ones aren't very accurate. What are you using as a heat source?

Raising daughter's hermit crabs, Shelder, Paras and Derek. Added 2 more of my own (of course) Pete and Stryper. Former mommy to 2 guinea pigs and beloved cat, Nissi
