When does a mother hermit crab leave her babies?
A mother hermit crab goes to the ocean/sea to fling her eggs. Once the eggs come in contact with the ocean/sea water they will hatch, and spend weeks in the ocean going through several metamorphosis stages until they come upon land for their last metamorphosis stage, burrow and take a shell to live in. So the mother hermit crab does not see them again after flinging them into the ocean unless per chance they come across each other inland from the shore after the baby hermit crab takes a shell to live on land.
What is the behavior of a hermit crab?
Well it all depends on if you have a male hermit crab. And a female hermit crab. They will have the eggs in water. If you live by a ocean u need salt water.

Can a hermit crab have babies in captivity?
No, unfortunately they can't... Hermit crabs lay their eggs in the ocean, they are born without shells, and eat plankton. If you have a very large aquarium, and can manage to make a mini-saltwater ocean inside as well as dry land, it could be possible... Remember that the ocean must have a proper amount of salt! (table salt is harmful to hermit crabs too...)
