HCA: Hermit Crab Association

After much forum lurking, a few posts, and some serious trial and error, we have finally rescued 2 lil guys from pet smart here in Ma. (Tho my husband was a bit embarrassed that i chewed them out regarding the conditions they were kept in)

Ive ironed out all my heating and humidity issues the last 2 weeks preparing the habitat thanks to alot of great info from some serious and helpful crabbers in this forum. I thank you.

Our 2 lil guy's (PP's) seem to already be enjoying themselves and 1 even started digging after a half hour. Tho hes not digging in a good enough spot since its a tunnel with a glass with only a few inches of sub inside it. Cant dig ANYWHERE else huh? Ha. Typical, just like a child.

I look forward to expanding, quickly i hope, and learning new things and just watching these guys be silly. Pics to come soon enough. Theyre a bit camera shy right now.

So glad you finally have your hermies! Glad to hear they're doing well.

Thank you! Im so obsessed! My son loves em too! I could only snap this 1 pic. The other guy barricaded himself in the tunnel with a wall of sub. I wish he would come out to eat ANYTHING!
