Crabs being funny

[orangeinecrab]

So I don't know where to put this but I thought it would be best here so I am putting it here anyway how come everyone's crabs seem to be funny things that will rush to the food dish and do funny things and mine just sit there doing nothing and sometimes move around a bit but I know they are healthy so could it just be they are content with what they are doing or could they just not be bothered doing other things??

Mine are the same way. I wish mine would do something funny! Other than kicking it in reverse like a bat out of heck when they see me hahahaha

Mine will sometimes climb and fall in the water pools but don't rush for food or other cool things

Well at least they are not being "crabby".. I have had crabs kick others off ledges..walk behind them and "kick"!

I think it's because other people have has some of theirs for years maybe? Mine are not so active but I haven't had them long. My one crab will be really active ever other night, last night she enjoyed climbing her vine and then jumping off into the water.

I'm sorry but that made me laugh so much and I have been up all night and its 6 am whilst other people sleep

I've had one of mine a year and that one does the least amount of things compared to the rest and your crab sounds like a proper fun one that loves diving

Haha yeah she's my active crab, the other enjoys sleeping and then waking up to eat, drink, get little exercise then sleep again. It's funny how they are complete opposites. One is active and loves to climb while the other loves to sleep and dig.

I mostly see mine out at night. Like 1, 2 in the morning. They do most of their activities while I sleep. While, since I started crabbing in November they are more active than before, they are no means active constantly. I have to sneak up on my crabs. That, or approach slowly. Some don't mind me, watching others bolt if I even walk by the tank at all. They're pretty chill though. They like to lounge, XD

Maybe you don't watch your crabs as much as others? Maybe some people just tell their stories really well and that makes the crabs seem entertaining? A good observer and writer can made the mundane seem enchanting.

I think I just have 2 lazy crabs. One gets active at night but the other eats and then sleeps, she's still distressing so hopefully after a successful molt she will be active, she's molting now so fingers crossed, the other crab is lazy for 2-4 days then from storing energy she goes crazy in the tank. Running around, climbing, checking out every shell, jumping into pools from the vines, she even wakes up at 6 pm to do this which is early for them, and after she gets her energy burst out she will laze around for a few days.
