What do you do if your hermit crab wont eat?

You could try spoon feeding them. Put some mashed up fruit or honey on a spoon and offer it to them slowly. If they do not act interested, you could try placing some on their lower antenaes. If you are lucky they will then raise the food that is on their antenaes up to their mouth parts to start eating. Keep trying. Or place it directly in front of them and leave them alone. If they end up tucked into their shells and dont startle when you gently probe their claw, they most likely are dieing. Seperate them and hope that they die a quick mercifull death. Make sure you do your research on how to care for hermit crabs so that they don't get into that positition. Sometimes it's not our fault, but knowledge does help prevent the enevitable.
