I love when they aren't shy :D shelldon is definitely not afraid. Even having a noisy household, she still comes out like clockwork. She was my third, has been my longest surviving crab so far :D lol just wait until he shrieks at you

You'll tell when you find them either going crazy over it, or find it half gone!
