Yes they do but they are not very big, It depends on how big the crayfish are.

Chitin and some calcium
A rostrum on a crayfish is an extension of its shell. This part is used for extra protection.
big boom!
The "shell" of the crayfish, or rather its exoskeleton, is composed of the polysaccharide chitin and some lipids. There are also some calcium salts in the exoskeleton of the crayfish, which gives it its firmness.
An exoskeleton - i.e. a shell.
After it molts, a crayfish needs some time to grow a new and larger shell. During this time it has no shell to protect it from attack, therefore it hides.
Crayfish have antennas but really big, once you land them you will realise they have really big antennas.
hard shell, sharp claws aquatic
Crayfish are crustaceans, and therefore have a shell-like outer covering called an exoskeleton.
Nope. They have a shell, known as an exoskeleton. Means bones are on the outside (the shell takes the place of bones)
