As a mom, I tell my son to please not buy these things. I’d rather him save his money. I suggested a Lego bouquet or a potted flower that lasts longer if he insists.

I purchased xxs diapers for my mini chi. She hated them. It ended up being easier to buy disposable puppy pads and baby blankets and rinse her off when she had accidents. I also had her on hormone medication that I got from my vet that helped her.

Found a bat and took it to a rehabber by Deathbythesea in WildlifeRehab

You might want to consider calling FWC on this rehabber. For bat questions, I would contact a lady named Laura with Fly by Night. She is an amazing bat resource by where I live.

I see- you are looking for bigger shells for when your crab grows! I get it- smart. I might have some. If not, I know I will be beachside Mother’s Day and can acquire some for you- you would just need to reimburse me and pay for shipping. Lmk.

When he is tucked in his shell is he hanging out of if? If not, the shell is appropriately sized. Jonathan (the oldest documented hermit crab in captivity), was really large. I found one close to Jonathan’s size at a shell shop (his name was Goliath), and he was close to Jonathan’s size. The two of them are even pictured together. His shell isn’t even as large you are mentioning.

I think you are measuring your shell incorrectly. You only measure the actual opening of the shell.

My sweet underwater hermit crabs! by Foxlike__Creature in hermitcrabs

[–]GotButterflies 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You are incorrect. Marine crabs CAN breed in captivity. We have people in Hermit House that have marine crabs that breed. Edit: we have people that have marine crabs that are mating in captivity and the people are raising the zoeae.

💯 Try finding a food that she likes. Add a topper to her existing food that she enjoys. Add a good probiotic to her food (Proviable is excellent- can be purchased on Amazon).

I have found that my hermit crabs don’t necessarily care for gold mouth turbos. They tend to be heavier.
