Meet Aphrodite

Post by KellyCrabbieLove » Thu Jan 08, 2015 10:33 am

This is the best picture I could get of her because I was in a hurry to leave the house, but here she is. My only Female E (I still have 1 unknown until he/she is done destressing ) brings my total to 4 Es and 26 PPs. Worried about my 2 new PPs though.

Yes. A 125. They are mostly tiny and smalls but I have some fatties in there too. My E's aren't agressive - well until I put my new pp in after getting her. She was post molt pale but hardened. I think she just smelled good because 4 crabs went after her. She may actually be a he but she gives off the female vibe. Everyone is friendly. Not a chirp or scuffle. Peaceful in Kelly crabbie world.

I had 13 up last night. More hiding I am sure. I have a lot of places to hide and a lot of small hermies.

That's so cool! I hope to get a lot of crabs when I get older. Got to get the hang of it first though

Look how well she is doing. This is after a long swim in my salt water pool. She sat under where the filter spits out the water for awhile seeming so tranquil. She got bored and came up the ramp and then over here to hang out and dry off. Jockey does this all the time. This does not bode well. LolImage
