Does anyone else have a crazy hermit crab?

Post by Pawsnrg » Mon Feb 28, 2022 9:37 pm

Does anyone else have a crazy hermit crab? One of my hermit crabs has been caught climbing along underneath the top side of the tank. And then on another occasion he has been known to climb up to the highest point of a tree in his tank and likes to do backflips when we walk in the door. I’m sure it is just being startled but even when we’re sitting on the couch watching the tank he does that kind of crazy stuff. Is this normal?

Def is normal lol. Someone on here had video of their crab climbing on an air hose, then dropping down into the water pool below. They did it a couple of times too. It was so funny!

Lid laps every night here! It's good exercise at least.
