Hermit crabs usually , if not always, have one large claw and one smaller claw.
The claw size has nothing to do with the sex of the hermit crab. The small claw is a "feeder" claw, used to rip and tear food and bring it to the crab's mouth. The large claw is used for defense, as well as for holding the food while the crab uses the small claw to pick pieces off to eat. The female crab will have two visible gonopores on the 4th pair of walking legs, and will have pleopods on the side of her abdomen, best seen when the crab is switching shells.
A Boy Fiddler Crab has 1 big claw and 1 small. A Girl Fiddler Crab has 2 small claws.
how you tell if a fiddler crab is a boy or girl is the male 1s have 1 large claw an 1 small claw an the female ones have 2 small claws
You can tell a fiddler crab's gender by its claws. A female fiddler crab has two claws, the same size. A male fiddler crab has one large claw and one small claw.
you could tell by the color of its big claw or behind its feet is two holes it is a girl
They get visited by a stork.
i dont think you can
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! :)
girl
A gonopore is what a girl hermit crab uses to make babys
See if there is a hole or dot under there body and if it does it’s a girl
The male has a ball claw and the female does not.
