    I have 6 favorites. Do you have that much bandwidth? 😀

    If I HAD to pick only one favorite though, it would be Crawdaunt. Even though he technically belongs to my daughter, he’s my little buddy. We knew early on that he was different. He will appear about the same time every evening and sit in the corner of his tank and watch tv for an hour or so (no joke) then eat and go on about his crabby business. His routine for 17 years. He rarely misses his tv time unless he is down molting or his schedule has been upset for some reason. We are guilty of rearranging the furniture to suit him, and the standing house rule is no shark or crabie offensive programs while he’s watching. ^.^
    He is a sociable little guy when he wants to be and will most always allow my daughters and I to pet him without backing away and will occasionally climb onto a hand when offered. He has distinct likes and dislikes, including tank mates- he always seems to be best buds with the smallest crab in the tank and he dislikes pushy girls, i.e. Blossom.

    So yeah, now our secret is out. Crawdaunt has us all wrapped around his little claw and he knows it!

    Well of mine are but tweety seems the most active and social. She likes when you pet her behind her eyes and will always come far out of her shell when I pick her up.

    She is the most active too, always climbing around.

    Right now I’m in love with my baby Cavipes. They are all so outgoing and gentle. This is one of the new ones that Christian surprised me with. Little crablet would not let go of my thumb but was not pinching me.
