Meet Me & The Hermies!

Post by kristykrab » Tue Mar 08, 2016 8:48 pm

Hello hello! My name is Kristin aka kristykrab (kinda lame I know) but anyways, I'm a new hermie owner, but I have had experience with hermies in the past! My boyfriend currently has three hermies; Aerith, Esmerelda, and Abu! (RIP Link!) I have always had an interest in hermit crabs but never acted on it, until I met him (go figure!) After getting to learn more and more about them I just fell in love! So for my birthday (next week!) my boyfriend gave me my very own hermit crabs, Buoy & Marina! I love them already! :crabblush:

*side note, how do you post pictures? :lol:

I love their coloring! Can anyone tell me what kind of shell Buoy is in? I have a little guy in the same shell and want to look for more.

Aren't they beautiful?! :D and I'm unsure of the shell name, but I ended up finding three of those type of shells :)

Something tells me it's a fox shell, but I could be wrong.

Gorgeous crabs! Fabulous coloring! And, yes, Buoy is in a fox shell. None of my guys are adventurous: they just stick with turbos...and not even any of the richly colored ones!
PPs are Big Enzo, Charles Paris and Mr Pinch
