When do I get to see my Hermies

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Sun Sep 09, 2007 4:28 am

I seem to have the most amazing invisible hermies, I'm getting rather bored from staring at an empty tat. I know they come up, if I get up at about 3 am and have a look everyone will be awake and climbing around, and every morning it looks like a tornados gone through my tat, but actually seeing them is another thing. They've all molted and theres a whole tunnel system under the substrate which you can sorta see when you look directly down on it, but otherwise nada.

Is there anything I can do to get my lil guys to come up when the lights on and I'm awake?

You have to remember that hermit crabs are nocturnal and will be most active during the night like you found out when you get up at 3 am.

You could try placing some special foods in the dish only during the day and provided they stink enough it might get some guys to come to it during the day.
