2019 Crab Con Epilogue

Tagged: 2019, con, convention, crab, crabcon, hermit crab

I’m honestly not even sure where to begin. Was Crab Con a success? Yes! Was it fun and amazing? Yes! Will we do it again? Yes! Most of my emotions leading up to the event were doubt, anxiety and excitement all mixed together. Today, I am proud, heartfull, thankful, amazed, impressed and inspired. More than once on Saturday I started to tear up, I was just so happy. For me, this event could not have happened without a lot of support from a lot of people. I am so very thankful for: My momma for being my helper, my product bagger and my pet sitter. MyRead More →

Watch us grow!! Mike and Melissa are joining us from Florida. They plan business and family trips around hermit crab adoptions they find on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace (among others). Their largest rescue was 33 crabs from Naples who were all in painted shells. Recently the last to change is now in a natural shell! They not only rescue hermit crabs, but also work hands on helping others set up proper crabitats. One was for a Kindergarten class that they set up with the perfect crabitat and some hermit crabs for the children to enjoy. Michael works with the Reddit community to promote proper landRead More →

Should we change our minds about bathing our hermit crabs?

2013-02-21
In: General
Tagged: bath, bathing, crab, hermit

By Bill (Kazabee, Inc.) The purpose of this post/poll is twofold; one is to present information that is known about the natural biology of hermit crabs (Coenobita spp.), and how it relates to the effects of regular bathing. The second purpose is to find out if such information will cause some crabbers to change their mind regarding the practice of actively bathing pet hermit crabs. This is a repost of my original. A minor change in the wording of the poll question had to be made and this was the only way to edit it. I apologize for the inconvenience. Many veteran and novice crabbersRead More →
