Hello everyone!
I'm so excited to join this group. I'm getting all of my crabby supplies this weekend and will adopt some hermies after I set up my crabitat. This place has been such a great resource. I'm looking forward to jumping into the world of hermit crabs. I had several as a child that I really adored. My own children love animals like me so it will be fun for them too. Thanks for posting such great info! Cheers!

Hello, Welcome to HCA! Beware, you are stepping into the world of hermit crabs and there is no turning back once they get their cute little claws into you.

I have owned Hermit Crabs for 2 Years
I have 1 E named Monkey and 2 PP named Shy Guy and Little P
I also own 1 PP named Dory who stays in my classroom

Thanks for the welcome! I'm excited to be a part of this community! I posted on the Emergency board because my two new little crabbies aren't moving or eating much. Any help would be great! Thanks!

Can you fill out the emergency template? How is your heat and humidity? Just keep providing them with all the food groups from their food pyramid and lots of calcium.

Welcome to the board! Sounds like the fore planning you did will ultimately help you out a big.
