I got 2 new purple pincher hermit crabs today, and will post pics in a bit. They were kept on metal, and cant climb because their nails are broken off. Both in rough shape, but some calcium, soil, humidity, and fresh food should save them :)
 
Pictures! First ones are of the 2 new guys, and the last is of my 4 and extra shells :D

As you can see, they were housed in wire cages at the store and now cant climb well because they nails got broken off :/
 
Well glad their doing better! Those are pretty cool but i think ill stick to the leopards hehe
 
They're very pretty! Glad you have them and can give them a better home :)
 
Aw!  They are cute little guys! :D I bet they're glad they found you! :)
 
Very pretty!  I know they'll have a good home with you!
 
But the nails being broken off probably wasn't from the store...they are wild caught. Poachers/collectors clip their nail tips off to pry them off of whatever they are on before being caught. :/ Just FYI.

I tried to stay away from two but then I figured he needed a friend to ISO with, right? :lol:
 
The big one is Pumba and small is Timon. Pumba has dropped his big claw :(
