Straw adoption!

Post by HermitCrabAddicted » Sat Jul 08, 2017 5:19 pm

I have finally had the opportunity to get a strawberry hermit crab after 10+ years of caring for hermit crabs. I am so excited to see how this beautiful crab will thrive! I may get another one down the line after I see how this one does:)

Congrats on the new addition!! I suggest getting him a specie buddy. They all do better in pairs IMO ;)
