Small crab changing shell - Video

Post by bmer » Tue May 02, 2017 9:42 am

Hello,

when I came home yesterday, my mini hermit crab was in a way to big shell.

I was like: "you fool!"

5 minutes later I was able to witness him changing shell again (more suited for is size this time)

I was able to capture it on my phone, I was SO hype! :clap:

Edit: actualy changing shell at 1:10 :o

I have no idea why, but every time (without fail) I say "boop" when a crab sticks his butt in a new shell. I just do.
