I planned to only ever have 3 PPs. I lost one (RIP Robin) so got Man-Bat at the beginning of the month. When I went to pick out Man-Bat, there was a tiny little crab I looked at first but, he barely even wiggled a claw when I picked him up so I got Man-Bat instead. Went back early this week to get some greenies for my dog. I couldn't resist checking on the crabs. The little guy was still there and wiggled more this time when I checked on him so, I brought him home. I hadn't been able to get him off my mind!
Anyway, here he is:
I hope he makes it! He's definitely the shyest of all my crabs after first adding him to the tank. He is eating though. I haven't caught him in either water dish but hopefully he's drinking too.
Batman is being really sweet to him and seems to be trying to show him the ropes.
Got another one!
Got another one!
4 PPs. Crabbing since Sept. 2014. Batman - Found as a stray (holy crab!) (2 molts). Killer Croc (1 molt). Man-Bat (1 molt). Lex Luthor (1 molt).
RIP Robin (did not survive 1st molt).

Re: Got another one!
Thanks!
He's still doing well. As hard as it is for me, I'm leaving him alone. Once he gets more settled, I'll see if I can get a better picture. He's irresistibly cute!!

Re: Got another one!
Here is a much better photo of my newest, tiny little cutie pie. I guess we are sticking to our theme, my son named him/her (I can't tell yet) Lex Luthor.
He seems to be doing ok so far.
