HCA: Hermit Crab Association

made a new climbing gym for the crabs! it's a lot more complex than the last one I made (the brown one in the last photo) but there's not as much space for them to hang out underneath it, so for now I'm keeping both in the crabitat.

I put it in last night & there's a little substrate on it this morning, so I'm taking that to mean they like it!

Oooh I really like that one!! I love when you make stuff in that color lol. Do you ever have the jungle gym's on your store? I haven't seen them yet if you do.

thank you!! the store is HearthStitches on Etsy

basically I roll out a slab of clay, cut it into strips, and then attach them together once they've dried out a little. the hard part is keeping them from cracking!

yep, ceramics are safe for crabitats as long as the glazes are safe (I don't use any that aren't)
