Martin B Posted September 21, 2007 Author Share Posted September 21, 2007 No I didn't see it happen. If you put hermit crab in on youtube there are plenty of videos of them changing shell. It's very strange. Just to let you know, he has now changed back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Perhaps your crab likes to have 2 homes - One for residence & one as a holiday home / timeshare! Aren't they funny! Lovely shade of blue that shell is. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
