Adoptees!

Post by soilentgringa » Thu May 07, 2015 11:26 am

Not to spam the pics thread but we just received 4 adoptees today from a wonderfully nice lady.
4 crabs, one has been with her for 5 years. Several molts!

This is the largest crab we own to date and hopefully it will be able to use my largest shells that none of the other crebz will fit in!

Connor named him Ronan.

The owner was having a hard time finding shells for them so 3 were in the whales eye (?) looking shells from Galveston.

I am always happy to adopt healthy crabs. One day I will need to build a super large enclosure for them. Lucky my cousin said there is a 100+ gallon aquarium in her dad's garage!

Awesome!! That big guy is enormous (at least to me). I laughed out loud when I saw the Lego for size comparison.

Congrats on the newbies :D

Absolutely gorgeous. There is some amazing colourings there!

Ronan chose a beautiful shell!

I laughed out loud when I saw the Lego guy for size comparison too
