She doesn't expect them until May (and that's if the suppliers ship on time to her) and then she'll keep them a couple of weeks to de-stress before shipping.
Surely she knows the difference in crab species. It is what she does for a living.

But I couldn't tell you the difference from a true cavipe from a banana since I've never seen one up close and personal!mom23 wrote:She doesn't expect them until May (and that's if the suppliers ship on time to her) and then she'll keep them a couple of weeks to de-stress before shipping.

Plus a lot of people work with these animals for a living, and you'd be surprised...
I'm not saying she'd lie or do anything on purpose, I'm just a bit skeptical

I'll be the guinea pig I'll post pics of what I get and we can all determine what they are. I do hope my blues aren't indos. I've got 5 and I'm always worrying about 3 of them.

Re: LiveHermitCrabs.com
I ordered cavipes. Hoping to have them around July. :3
Re: LiveHermitCrabs.com
Me too and Aussies and Blues so I will post pics. I'm just not even going to guess when they'll come in. I'm just going with the flow. This time I didn't tell my son when to expect them so that way he isn't freaking out with anticipation.Scarlz wrote:I ordered cavipes. Hoping to have them around July. :3

Re: LiveHermitCrabs.com
Well, I assumed that time, thinking if they came in may, they would ship in june, giving time for destressing, ect. 
Re: LiveHermitCrabs.com
Yay! I got an email from her-
The shipment from Indonesia will be arriving in NY on the 13th. *we can expect those crabs around the beginning of June*
I did not order Aussies, but she said "shes awaiting confirmation from Australia for his shipment dates". So, Im passing this on to you guys who ordered them....

Re: LiveHermitCrabs.com
I ordered straws I wont see them until June, but I'm super excited either way.
Been wanting them for a very long time.
I dunno why it took me years to finally go ahead and do it.
She sent me another notice last night and it states:
"Blueberries,Cavipies, Indos, Ruggies, Straws, Violas- are expected May 13, but are awaiting more confirmation. They will need an additional 2 weeks to de-stress. *Im guessing around the first week of June*
We are still waiting on an arrival date for Aussie crabs and should have this any day.
Please note- if you ordered both, they will ship together, therefore you order will ship later than the Indonesian crabs only."
