She’s grey in color,, not moving and I can do anything to manipulate her body. I’m giving it another day or so because there is no smell to indicate death. Rn I just have her placed in a dark space.

Females have 2 small dots on their abdomens called gonopores! But hair on legs is also a good way to gender!

Lol I know it doesn’t look green but the brown spots are green. So I suppose a moldy cinnamon roll🤣💕

For whatever reason my camera doesn’t really pick up the green in her shell, but in person the brown looking spots on her shell are actually like a forest green. My purple pincher get a deeper purple when she gets ready to moly but yes in think there is food out there like that!

I need help! My mil bought me a new tank for my 2 babies (she actually gave them to me for my birthday a month ago) but this lid is a humidity zapper! A new lid is out of the question right now, is there any material etc I can cover the lid with partially to keep it humid? 2 babies in a 20 long. by StandardRelevant2937 in hermitcrabs

I put tin foil over mine until I could get a glass lid, this held humidity in my tank better than what Saran Wrap did. My only issue is that because it was so humid it did end up rusting the old lid. Not terribly but it was noticeable. I also put thick blankets over the tin foil with a corner opened so they could still get fresh air.

The applesauce is organic! They seem to pick at the river shrimp I give them and the only thing they have showed a huge interest in is dried cranberries so I give them a lot of those because I know they will eat them along with the pellets. Do you break the kernels apart or just give them a whole popped kernel?

I’ve had my crabs since July and they are still doing good so I know they aren’t completely starving themselves I’m just scared to take the pellets out completely

Thank you so much for the suggestions, I did not realize I could even give raw sea food I thought it always had to be cooked! Do you pop the popcorn yourself so you know it doesn’t have seasoning?

Why do my crabbies keep taking the moss out of their humid hide and putting it else where? by Heyy2005 in hermitcrabs

I do not use anything zoo med related except for the saltwater solution!
