1 crab in NY Capital Region needs a home

Post by swaters25 » Thu Feb 06, 2025 12:33 pm

I have one large hermit crab living all alone in a large tank. She is I'm sure very lonely and I'd love to get her into a knowledgeable home with other crabs to socialize with and have a fulfilling life. Let me know if interested - I'm in the Saratoga, NY area will drive up to 1 hour.

Hello! I'm near the Syracuse area, which is about 3 hours away from you. It's hard for me to travel long distances with working and having 2 very small kids.

I already have 2 crabs, 1 adoption from the Buffalo area a year ago and 1 I purchased locally. They are both doing well and down for another molt. Plenty of room for your crab.

If you are coming west at some point I could possibly meet up with you. Let me know! You can PM me directly or shoot me an email: emayers21@gmail.com

I do travel to Syracuse from time to time - when I have plans to go that direction, I'll reach out and see if you are still interested! I feel guilty about my crab being all alone. We have a large tank for her (just guessing on the her) - do you need any supplies if/when we connect?

Sounds good! I am all set on supplies, but I won't say no to any food or shells you are looking to get rid of. Can never have too much!

I check this forum once in a while, so if you're planning a trip and I don't reply back here, shoot me an email. I'll get it quick.

Hi! I'm just under an hour away in Gloversville. Is your crab still looking for a new home? I have 2 in a 40 gallon tank and would love to welcome a third

It might be easier for me to get to Gloversville than Syracuse- send me a DM if you are interested in meeting up - I still have the hermit crab.

If you guys can work it out, great! If not, I'm still willing.

I did reply to your DM on the 25th! I just saw your reply on here. I'm not sure if my message just didn't go through? Sorry I'm new to the forum I might not have done it right 😅

Emailed OP to find out if crab has been adopted so the ad can be deleted.

I still have the crab, however it is currently burrowed/molting so I decided to leave it alone until it emerges!
