A hermit crab only molts when it feels it needss to. Make sure you have plenty of soil in your hermit crab home.
Your hermit crab cam go fast depending on the whieght of the shell on the hermit crab. If the shell is light the speed of the crab will increase, if the shell is heavy on the crab the speed will decrease.
You get distilled or spring water and mist the cage LIGHTLY and mist the hermit crab LIGHTLY make sure your hermit crab is never dripping wet when you mist it.
murder it
No they dont have air fresheners for hermit crabs
You can tell by looking underneath the third row of legs on your hermit crab. On a female Hermit crab, there are two small holes underneath the third row of legs. These holes are called "Gonopores". On a Male hermit crab there are no holes. To check-get your hermit crab out and hold it's shell up. Make sure the shell is facing towards the ceiling and the hermit crab's body is facing torwards the floor. while the hermit crab is dangling upsidown you are able to see underneath the legs where the gonopores might be. And remember: No gonopores=MALE.....gonopores=FEMALE Hope this helps! :)
no u dimwittt
A gonopore is what a girl hermit crab uses to make babys
Congratulations! No need to rename it. It's the same hermit crab. It molted it's old skin! This means your hermit crab is perfectly healthy and can grow! Make sure you have a slightly bigger shell though. Leave it alone until it walks around and is very healthy.
Hermit crab Fighting is when, One hermit crab wants the other hermit crabs shell and will force it out of the shell to get it, sometimes it leads to death or a teared off limb. So make sure you have enough shells in the container. At LEAST 3 extra shells per hermie
If a hermit crab is dead it will begin to give off a rotting smell after just a couple days and will not make even the tiniest of twitches.
I don't think that hermit crabs can feel many emotions but if you feel that your hermit crab is in a grumpy mood just leave it alone and make sure it has all its essentials (water, food, ect.)
