Last weekend a person in my city pmed me. She had a hermie that needed a new home.
I brought her home. My DD was not interested in getting another hermie because we lost Oona after streaking and she is tired of feeding and watering "pet-sand". However she is really enjoying having Bernadette join the hermie tank because Bernadette is so active.
When DD was 5yo she really wanted a hermit crab, :roll: so I took her to library and we got books on how to take care of them. She changed her mind real quick. Thank heaven.
Then on DDs 11th birthday a friend gave her a hermit crab in a critter cage with pink "sand". Surprise!! worst gift ever, although well meant from a little girl who is quite innocent to what she has done. never give a living gift unless you know...
