I just got a hermit crab from the Jersey Board walk by surprise and I have no supplies and am saving up for more supplies but just for now is grass a good bedding for your crabbatat?

Hi Hermit Crab101!

Grass is not dangerous to a hermit crab but it is not a safe substrate. Sand mixed with coco fiber is the perfect substrate. You can read more about substrates here: Substrates for Hermit Crabs

Your friend in a pinch,

Milo
