As a New Years resolution, I got crabs. Stop your laughing and continue reading. I got the land variety. Several legs, a pincher or two, and the cutest beady little eyeballs you could hope for. My hermit crab addiction started with a visit to the pet store in which I was given too much time to look around.
After falling in love with the creepy crawlies most call hermit crabs, I went home and did some googling. They aren’t your everyday pet and are actually quite needy. Humidity to breath, temperature to live, blah blah blah. I wasn’t deterred. After getting the weather in their tat to specific rain forest like conditions, they are pretty low maintenance. After a little over 2 weeks of creating the perfect condition for crabs, I finally got them New Years day. The building of their tat was quite stressful at times, but I wasn’t going to give up. I wanted creepy crawlies.
