Crabby hair

Post by Guest » Mon Sep 24, 2007 2:26 pm

Well Brutus is alive and survived his molt, although the molt was disturbed by Pinchy digging him up. [smilie=banghead.gif] Brutus is now in iso and I noticed that his leg is hairy. Is this normal for a freshly molted crab? Do they get hairy legs?? :?: :?:

I love seeing the new hairs! They are usually golden looking. Those are signs of a healthy crabber :) My jumbo PP's have very hairy legs!!
