Does he need a bigger shell?

I found this guy last night. He’s huge. What if he can’t find a bigger shell? I’ll bring a few to him, but we might have to print him a new home with a 3D printer.

I hope that you left him in the wild. Jumbo crabs don't need new shells very often, they can wear the same one for years. And 3D shells don't really work, since crabs like to modify and eat their shells.

It's a marine hermit crab, so he's able to go to the source when he's in need of a larger home. That shell hes wearing now though can last him for years!
