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.

I am a new hermit crab owner.I ordered two hermit crabs from here and they came within a week of me ordering. I was so hesitant and anxious about how they would survive being shipped. They arrived alive and well. It’s been about a week since I’ve had them and They both are very active and thriving with my other two hermit crabs I got shortly after they from a previous owner. They are so small and cute. Would definitely order from here again!

ordered a pair to add to my solo crab. Arrived healthy they are very excited to meet the other crab since hermits live in groups. Lively bunch even during the daytime…great pet for the grandkids to watch and handle.

I bought two crabs about a month ago and they have been thriving ever since! They did go down for a couple weeks to either de stress or molt, so don’t be alarmed if yours does too (it is normal). I would recommend! They came in good shells (not the harmful painted ones in pet stores). They were also packaged securely and safely. They have brought joy to my toddler as she is always excited to see Shelly and Sandy!

I ordered 2 kits, out of the 4 hermies 3 arrived alive and are doing well. One did not arrive alive but was quickly replaced. I highly recommend getting a larger tank. They love to dig and climb! The tank they come in is great for travel or a temporary molting tank!

I purchased the 2 hermit crabs and the habitat about 6 months ago. Both hermit crabs arrived alive and well and the habitat had all the items and the instructions for care. Six months later I only have one left. But he’s pretty neat. I’m going to order another.

I ordered multiple crabs, and am happy to report that all survived the trip. They are having a blast dining on my custom made hermit crab food. These little guys have brought my family so much joy.

I ordered one hermit crab and it arrived alive and well. I named her Wonder because the whole time she was being delivered I was wondering if he or she was ok. She came a bit chilly but I gave her a bath and she perked right up. She is also getting along with her sisters and brother and we will definitely be getting more crabs from this site soon! Although this is all great news she is a little smaller than what I was expecting. It said that my crab would be medium sized but i would say she is very tiny. Other than that great site definitely would recommend.

I ordered two hermit crabs and they both arrived alive and happy! They appear to be very healthy compared to when I buy them from local pet stores. They are currently in great hands and have 10 other hermies they can play with. I am a first and returning customer!

I ordered 3 Crabs from here and all of them were dead. 🙁 but I asked for new ones . they sent me 3 healthy alive hermit crabs. Me and my siblings love playing with them. I would definitely recommend! so easy
Marissa Simmons –
They are very active. They eat and drink regularly and are doing great! I have had them for two months now and they are thriving. These are the best crabs I have gotten. All of the shells are beautiful. I will for sure get all my crabs and plants from here whenever I need them. I am very happy with the product.????????

Ordered 6 crabs very pretty shells five arrived alive one dead the dead was replaced with another and sadly it only lived for a little bit the others are doing well and are very active and love running around two even switched shells the night we got them.
Matteo –
First crab came dead though this company gave me no problem and sent me a new one right away. This crab is super active and after 10 minutes of having it it was crawling and loving life great site.
Renae Beck –
I have had these 2 happy hermits for over a month now and they have brought me great joy. Thanks so much!!
Nancy Quesada –
Only one arrived well. We thought the other was dead. After giving it a bath it started moving slightly but went back to being anti-social and lethargic. We took them both to the vet and he said to give the sick one some time but that the active one was just fine. It died the next morning. The healthy one was lively and and loved walking around, it’s very fun to watch.
Anastasia –
Both were larger than I expected, very active and ready to explore their new home. I had been concerned about the transit time (1 week) but the crabs seemed none the worse for it. Right now they’re climbing the branch in their tank!
Mary Goswick –
They arrived on time, one was very lively and is doing well, but the other arrived dead.
Ya’ll were very nice and sent me one to replace it. That one was alive, but very sluggish. It died 2 weeks later, I’m sorry to say.
Thank you very much. Ya’ll did try.

Crabs died 2 days after delivery. Their shells were pretty.
Vanessa –
Be sure to order this cute little guys when the weather is not to hot. This is why my crabs arrived dead.
Jill –
I received the crabs within a week of ordering. They came individually packaged with shredded paper and a wet sponge. They were eager to play and come out as soon as I opened them. Compared to the two crabs I bought at Petco, these are much more active and fun to watch and they drink and eat regularly. Both are large and healthy and came in beautiful shells and two to grow into, which they’ve both already switched shells. I would definitely order again.
S. Han –
Happy with this item.
Rhys D –
One was perfect condition, very active. other is active also, but one leg had fallen off (probably from anxiety/travel) but it molted and leg is back 🙂
someone who cares –
I’m a soon to be 52 year old woman that still enjoys these little guys. I have ordered these crabs through this seller several times. They come to you very well packed with extra shells. They are young and will give you many years of joy if you take good care of them. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to have hermit crabs as a pet. As soon as I get a larger home for them I will be back to order some more. Of course they can be found in most pet stores, but I’m putting my money to something that I find to be a better and highly worth it quality pet. They are young, clean, attractive crabs. I love mine and you will too!

I had a 10 gal tank and just needed the crabs and these came alive and well I let them have a day of rest after being in the mail and today my kids have played with them non stop.
Brittney Wells –
Well packed and ready for a new adventure outside their containers 🙂
Betty –
Both arrived alive and seemingly well! Shipping was much faster than expected and they were packed very well. Two very different personalities! We have the explorer who only stops for snack breaks, and the hermit who just wants to sit in their hut (or the corner) and be anti social.
