i want to bring my crabs crab racing at a fair, and i want to know if that is cruel to them, or whether they would enjoy exploring around.

I would not do it. This activity would be extremely stressful for the hermit crab in my opinion. It will be taken out of its comfortable home, transported elsewhere, removed from its heat and humidity (therefore freezing and having difficulty breathing), and then exposed to others who could be carrying disease, not to mention the stress of being out in the open where predators are flying overhead (from the crab's persoective anyway). I just think it is a bad idea.

I agree with Geranium on this one.
