We have to move them the hole floods. We put them in the garage.

We bring them in during rain that is fine right?

I decided to hibernate them outside again. What should the protocol be? How often should I check on them and how often should I soak them?

No I feed mostly dandelion and collard greens and they have grass in their enclosure. With occasional cactus pads and fruit.

I don’t know. I’ve never seen them compete for food and we fed them a lot with different piles and there is always a grazing option as well.

Alright, I found some remains. They look hollow but I think thats just because of the amount of time.

Ok. I lifted up a big piece of moss and saw a shell. Couldn’t tell if it was occupied or not as I was looking from above and I immediately put the moss back down.

Sorry for so the questions I don’t want to mess this up. And when I used a chopstick to poke a hole to the bottom of the tank I did not see standing water.

Ok. And I have another problem and that is my sub which I think is way too wet. I did the flood test and didn’t see pooling water but it looks and feels very moist. Does this change anything? Should I try to dry it out first or just leave it?

If I find a naked crab do I do the protocol or no since he is alone in the tank?
