We have four new family members. They like to hide in shells, and are fairly easy to care for. Harlan was very creative in naming them. 2 are named Hermie and 2 are named Baby. Makes it easy enough for me, cause I can’t really tell ‘em apart. After some research (on you tube), we made a visit to the pet store and purchased a new terrarium and made it homey.
This is the cage that we purchased in Myrtle Beach. It will make a great “back up” cage for when we clean their new home, but the 4 of them needed more room.
Harlan with the new hermit crab haven. There are places for them to hide and sleep; and also for them to climb and get exercise. We even witnessed two of the crabs climb underneath the log from the top. They really are great climbers and really fun to watch!
If you look closely you can see one of the crabs crawling through the green sand. This one seems to be our most outgoing and active guy,
The other three guys like to hang out in the Hermie Hut and at times we will find all four little dudes squished in the hut!
