HCA: Hermit Crab Association

Does anyone else have a PP with red eyes? My crab Kaulder has the cutest red beady eyes.

Both of mine are down molting right now so I haven't seen them in about a month but I think that they both have kind of maroonish-brown colored eyes? Let me see if I have any close up pictures of them really quick that I can post! Here's Kaladin! He is a pretty little guy!

Aw Kaladin is so adorable! What a great close up!
If I tried to get that close Kaulder would hide her eyes in her shell lol.

My crab Dusty does! I’ve heard from CSJ that it’s a recessive gene.

Oh, that's interesting! I never thought about hermit crabs having genes but I guess it makes sense! That's cool!

Yes, those are exactly what my Kaulder's eyes look like! I never thought about crabbies having genes either lol. Love the pics of Dusty too.

My one crab Hoodini (I regret letting my brother name him "Hoodini" instead of Houdini (He named him after a owl character from a video game, thinking I wouldn't know). He got a "hoot" out of me saying yes though, so ) is a dark purple, red pp with red/dark brown eyes (He looks like Kaulder)! I need to get Tapatalk soon so I can show him to you all ^^

Aw I'd love to see a pic of him! Maybe Kaulder and Hoodini are siblings hehe.

That's awesome! I never looked at my crabbies eyes that close until now. My Beau has more oval black eyes.

Odin has red eyes himself! I'd say their more of a Tuscan red though, my phone camera kinda distorts the colors a little bit. You can even see the pupils!
