poor sad new crabbie

Post by p38nut » Wed Apr 29, 2015 2:24 pm

So my daughter and I brought home 2 very small crabbies Tuesday last week. One spent 48 hours tanking up and promptly dug down hopefully to molt. The other changed shells the 1st night (yea!), but hasn't eaten or drank at all since that 1st night. He's so lethargic he barely even moves. I'm sure it's just PPS, but I hope he/she snaps out of it soon. Poor sad crabbie. :(

I'm sorry. :( PPS is common and very heartbreaking.

R.I.P. little one. You just went through too much on your journey. At least you're in a better place now.
