I seem to have a nudist hermit crab.

Most hermits streak out of their shells when they are stressed or sick. Panic the Ecuadorian, however, doesn't need a reason. Dinner's ready? NAKEY TIME! Human staring at me? NAKEY TIME! Bored? NAKEY TIME!He always goes back to his shell after a couple of minutes. But it is the strangest crab behavior I've ever seen. O_O

Sounds like a combination of ideal climate and feeling safe in his environment. I streak because I can. lol

Maybe he just likes to. Like nudist people, you don't see many in the states, but maybe he is just the odd ball out and likes to be nude. It is his home after all. Maybe he is doing it for the ladies lol.
