Tiny Tim's New Home

[MermaidMel]

I used to keep the Caribbean land hermits (known locally as "soldier crabs.") I actually caught a big one, and a few smaller guys too. The only problem was I couldn't find shells for any of them and no pet stores sell them on island, so I ended up just setting them free where I found them.


I bet you already know, but hermits like to be kept with more then one species. They like to interact with each other. And it's always a good excuse to get him (and you ) a new friend.

yep tha main hermit cracb has 5 i there of diffferent species small golf ball to tennis ball sized.
Tiny is on his own as he is a 1/5 of thre size and the bit the tips of his legs off so he finds it hard to climb around.
He actually Ended Up changing Shells 3 times yesterday afternoon, so i put him in a cube with 10 shells untill he was ready. bless him he actually chose the shell i wanted him to be in. Custard/Brown/Red marbling and just his size. he is still getting used to a much bigger and heavier shell bless him i will be getting him a few more friends of his size when they arrive on wednesday next week from the suppliers.
