How can you tell between a girl and boy hermet crab?
First, gently coax your hermit crab to expose the bottom of its second pair of legs. You can do this by hanging it face-down with its belly toward you and letting it stretch toward your palm. On the top joints of the second pair of legs, near the abdomen, if there are two small dots, it is a girl. If you see nothing, it is a boy. This is not always accurate, however.
