Took him (or her, I don't know. Hasn't let me look lol) 5 weeks! He went down 2 days after I got him and just now came up. His shell looked almost too big for him when I got him. It completely swallowed him! I thought it was an empty shell when I first picked it up. Turned it over and saw the tiniest tip of a leg. As soon as I set it back down, the shell scurried to the front of the tank and the little guy begged to come hone with us. He reminded me of a baby in grandpa's cowboy hat - couldn't see his face, only legs and arms. He was dubbed "The Muppet" that day. But now he can't even get all the way into his shell. He's got more to choose from than anyone else in the tank, so hopefully he'll find something he likes by morning!

LOL! :lol: How cute! The little ones really are precious! That's cool that he's grown so much! I'm sure he'll be happily shell shopping all night :)

So cute!

Like most adorable babies, they never stay tiny for long enough. :)

I'm concerned about my micro. Have not seen him in 3 months. Hopefully he will come out soon

My older Es are orange and tan. I believe the younger ones are greenish/blue hues.
