Species identification

Post by quinnmquinn » Mon Apr 06, 2020 9:15 pm

I’ve had this hermit crab for approximately 3 years now and I never thought he looked like my other two crabs that are PPs.
He was huge when I got him and had a much darker color than the other crabs. I have be
en wondering if he was an Indo or strawberry or if he is just a large PP.
He is also a lot more reclusive than my two smaller crabs who have more pinky hues where he has much darker tones.
Here are some pics of you have any clue!

Looking at the big claw and shield leg he looks like a large PP to me.

Yeah, he looks like a PP to me as well (also, I see that cat nose in the first picture!:lol:).
Three PPs (Hoodini, Aaron Burr, and Jubali)
Love my deceased baby crabs George Washington, Zero, Domino, Billy, Eduardo, and Shelly too 🥺
