no not usually
As it molts, it will grow. :)
Before a hermit crab molts it needs a salt water dish and it will eat extra food and drink extra water, then it will dig underground to molt.
No, it regrows them
Soft.
no mold on crab shells is not bad for you but it is bad for the crab
A hermit crab only molts when it feels it needss to. Make sure you have plenty of soil in your hermit crab home.
there skin grows and then they change their shells so make sure you have plenty of shells in different shapes and sizes
When ever a hermit crab grows out of its old shell it finds a new one to call home. There is no set amount of times a hermit crab will change its shells. The hermit crab will only change shells if it has grown to big for its original one. Otherwise, the hermit crab will not change shells. It all depends on the hermit crab's growth rate and size.
A crab that lives in the shells of other shell fish is called a hermit crab.
No hermit crabs inspect a new shell inside of their cage the they pull them self out of the shell and then drop them self into a new shell. there are videos on youtube.com of crabs changing shells. so provide your crab with extra shells. i am a hermit crab owner i have watched my crabs change shells it is called molting.
No, Dynasty Inc. does not use real crab shells in its imitation crab products. Imitation crab, often made from surimi, is a processed seafood product that typically contains fish, starch, and flavorings designed to mimic the taste and texture of crab meat. Real crab shells are not part of the ingredients in these products.
There is not one person who has a hermit crab with a missing leg. I found a hermit crab with a missing leg and even though the store keeper told me that he had a missing leg I still felt I had a bond with him. If you do get a hermit crab with a missing leg you just have to wait until it molts. Once it molts the leg will grow back and it will be like it never had a missing leg in the first place.
