A few of my babies!

This is Popeye! When I first started crabbing, I ordered him from Nature Valley Gift Store in Washington. Thankfully, he arrived perfectly fine other than his missing eye! Although he has molted, his eye still hasn't grown back yet. I'm hoping that eventually it will. He will be 3 years old on January 17th!

Here are two of my other babies. They don't have names, because they change shells so much that it's hard to tell them apart, unlike Popeye LOL!

I have one more, but I believe he is underground right now.

Nice colorful crabs! Popeye is so sweet :love5: -- he's been one-eyed for so long, he might be freaked out if he regrew the other stalk: think he's seeing "double"! :lol:

Beautiful crabs and great pics! Sometimes eyes can be regrown, sometimes not. I think it depends on how much damage. And when they do grow them back it can take quite a few molts.
