i have crab, coconut, that was a gift from the pet store that i have had for a few months, and she does have a like a lavender purple pincher and all her other legs are this very soft lavender as well
she doesn’t look like any pp or e i’ve ever had so i wasn’t sure because i am not familiar with crabs other than es and pps (since that’s all i’ve owned)
thanks
what breed is she?

It's hard to say without a photo, but most often crabs from a pet store are PPs. They come in a wide range of purple shades. I would imagine that's what Coconut is.
3 PPs: Beacon the Two Pound Crab of Light and Purity & Scuttles the Shadow Crab of Darkness and Desparity ~ 2/10/19 and Felicity Crab-19 ~ 5/24/20
1 Orange Cat: Chloe Hannah ~ 4/2015

That description sounds like a PP. They come in a range of browns and purples.

Possibly blueberry/viola but I'd bet pp, they are way more common at pet stores and if it's claw is darker in color it's safe to say you have a pp.

Lilas have entered the pet store trade recently, however they tend to be in privately owned pet stores, and are sold for more money. They also have orange antenna, and have wider eyes like Ecuadorians.
Truly blessed to have incredible creatures, wonderful friends and my amazing family in my life!! I'm very thankful & grateful for all of them! www.thehealthyhermit.com
