Is something wrong?

Post by Fangs19 » Sat Nov 12, 2022 11:14 am

M&M has been sitting in the same spot for a couple of days and then occasionally going to get something to drink or bathe himself but he hasn’t been eating as much which also worries me
Once he returns he sits in the same spot where Hallow usually sits by (She’s currently molting at the moment)
Does he miss her?

That doesn't sound too unusual for crabs who are comfortable in their environment. They tend to be couch potatoes when they're content, and they will find a favorite spot to return to!
