Carmicle saying "Good Morning" to me today :)

He's the only one of my crabs who will wave his antennae at me like crazy <3 Does anyone else talk to their crabbies?

Always! My best responder, King Felix the Pale, answers both finger waves and glass taps, Charles Paris answers finger waves and the other two run for their lives :lol: !

He is so small, like my Persephone, who I never get to see. I try talking to mine, but the only one who is ever up and stays around one the lights are on is penny

What a beautiful little cutie! I talk to my crabbies but they have an attitude issue so I tend not to bother them too much. Olve only wants to talk when HE is in the mood and little Yippe just talks smack from under the sub since she's molting right now and can't come say it to my face.

Carmicle is my most active hermit crab :) My other PP, Olivia, is terrified of me. Whenever she sees me enter the room, she runs/falls/rolls away as fast as she can into a hiding spot [FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY]

Olve used to be very active but he has started to slow down and eat less now. He just hides in their elevated moss pit all day long. I'm hoping he's not preparing to molt there but if he does it'll be relatively easy to isolate him since it's elevated and Yippe is molting as well. Your Olivia sounds a lot like my Yippe

I love hearing about other people's crab's personalities. Dusty is the most active and least shy, then Momo is extremely shy and probably the least active, then Edd is the one who loves to dig, and is also the bully (pinched me twice, gets in shell fights but then doesn't want the shell afterward) and I'm still judging Enoch since he's fairly new and has only been up for a week. Right now he's pretty hard to find because he's so tiny and there's so many potential hiding places for him, he's a ghost.

My smallest crab Tina is like that. Its also hard since she's so small right now she comes up for a few days then goes underground for a week or so. Im also not to familiar with RoxSand when i first got her, she went under to molt right away and just came up. Hermione and Uu are my biggest. They wikk even come up to me when they see me near the tank. Sadly Hermione is underground and Uu is getting ready to go under.
