What if your hermit crab buried its self and hasn't come out for a week?
Hermit crab's typically do this for one of two reasons: 1: They are molting. Hermit crabs shed their skin once every 6 months to a year. During this process they dig a hole beneath the ground and shed their exoskeleton. This is a very delicate process that needs to be handled seriously. 2: Their habitat is not adequate. Hermit crabs dig holes into the sand if the air is too dry for them or if the temperature is too hot or cold. Crabitats should be approximately 80 degrees with at least 60%.
