Hermit Crabs

Hermit Crabs are Small Animals that live at the beach and make great pets.

Description
Hermit Crabs are Prickly, Social, Little Creatures. They Like Crawling around and exploring new places, They Pinch for certain reasons, and Sometimes have painted shells (Depending where you buy them). They change shells as they grow and get to the size of a baseball! They happen to be shy from when you get them for the first time. They are not fussy eaters; Yet you shouldn't feed them anything spicy or junk food.

Care
Hermit crabs require a certain amount of care to keep them happy and healthy. If you get them in a wire cage you should most likely change it as soon as possible because it is bad for their claws. If you have a glass tank that would be good for them. Hermit crabs are most likely available at your nearest pet store, and you can most likely get them a tank too. At least 2 Hermit Crabs are recommended for a happy community. You should bathe them weekly. Keep them submerged in a small container for about 1 minute, and allow them to air dry. Hermit crabs can eat meat, vegetables, fruits, and almost anything else you can think of that is healthy. Do not feed them any Junk Food or Spicy Things. They are Nocturnal, So don't expect them to be that active during the day.
