A Hermit Crab’s Life:

Hermit crabs are not actually ‘hermits’. They are very social creatures and like company. The hermit crabs shell is not actually part of its body – it is a borrowed snail shell that it uses to hide its soft tail in and store water. Hermit crabs grow by molting and need to move into a larger shell, so it is important to have slightly larger shells available in the habitat with them. Sometimes they just want a change and may try out the empty shells in the habitat. When a hermit crab molts, it will regenerate any lost limbs. Sometimes it takes a few molts, but they will all regrow. When crabs are ready to molt, they will bury themselves in your crabitat substrate for 2-6 weeks, then when they emerge, they will shed their old exoskeleton and move into a larger shell. Crabs are most active at night – this is called being ‘nocturnal.’ Because they are active at night and can be noisy creatures, you may want to consider keeping the cage out of a bedroom unless you are a sound sleeper.

Ages 8+ with adult supervision.
