Don't you feel great finding hermit crabs on craigslist? Adopting these guys is usually giving them a huge boost in living conditions and a second chance at a long life. I must say, though, the two you found look quite healthy -- no painted shells or missing limbs.
PPs are Big Enzo, Charles Paris and Mr Pinch

Also Mom to Imogene the Syrian Hamster

The previous owners who I got these guys from had actually just setup there tank... And you can probably imagine it was quite bad. (Calcium sand, commercial food, etc.) The lady said that they had gotten the hermit crabs from a friend of theirs.Who knows how many homes they've been to.
