Wow that's a cool site :) I think it's funny that they have Japanese land snail shells on their site... I find those all over the place! At least now I know...
I found one of my hermies (Ben)in a terrible mess. He has been attacked and ripped to shreds. All that remains is his small pincher and one leg and both of...

... thing, ... I have, and for the life of me I cannot remember or do I have a link to the posting a couple have done. :( It has 'something' or is related to...
Sorry that this happened to poor Ben, but I'm glad that you found him and he is in a safe place where he can recover. I lost a crab due to a shell fight a few...
Oh Leanne, I am so sorry for your hermie, Ben. Thank goodness, I have never had anything like that happen to any of my crabs, so I'm not one to give you...
I couldn't tell you why but none of mine have ever chosen Japenese land shells. They prefer the Murex and Turbos. Have any other crabbers out there ever had...
Leanne, I am sorry to hear about the attack but thank goodness you were able to intervene in time. It is very interesting how he stays upside down but surely...
... land shells. Have any other crabbers out ... Nope, brought a few home in them, and it did not take them long at all to ditch the shell and choose a turbo...
Hi everyone, I have to tell you I have owned Hermies for over 20 years and I love this group. I wish I'd have had access to it when I had gotten my very first...
Leanne, Maybe he stays upside down because he had a nightmare that a giant crab grabbed him from under the substrate. I'm kidding of course. But seriously, is...
I don't use live plants or silk ones. Plastic are hard to find but I did find some that has small leaves and looks just like natural seaweed. The way I have...
Wendi, You do not sound stupid and no question is a stupid one to ask about hermies. That is the way every single one of us learn. Happy and healthy crabbing,...
... Have any other crabbers out ... Yep. I have on land snail shell that makes the rounds, it's almost never off of someone and the ones who like it keep it...
Is there any site to know which shells are which? Mine like the shells that look like a beanie hat to me. They are a heavy shell. when I got my one, it...
That just goes to show our hermies ar different and sure have a mind of their own. Another example is many crabbers hermies like grapes, mine don't so much....
Go to Naplesseashellcompany.com and click on the shells for hermit crabs. That may help you. I have purchased some small crabs in the kind of shell you...
I have a little guy, Lucky, (who just came up from a molt recently with a brand new large cheliped, although it is only as big as his feeder claw right now)...
Most of my crabs, both PP's and E's, seem to prefer the mini conch shells. At least that's what I think they're called. They are kind that look like an ice...
... Hi Wendy, I do believe that this is what happened, a giant hermie did grab him and rip him apart. I have been watching him closley and I think the problem...
... All of my crabs seem to go for the turbos, so I have turbos of all kinds of colors and polishes. I'm kind of jealous of the Naples Sea Shell company,...
... they put them on. My babies however LOOOOVE them. Most of them are wearing them and none of the babies will touch turbos but nearly all of my bigger...
... Hi Bonnie, I think he is losing his balance as the shell is way too big for him and very heavy. When he flips over I can see his chlepid and only remaining...
The smaller ones do seem to like those. I had several in them when they were small and was sorry when they outgrew them as they are pretty. I have never...
When our children are babies we pick out a nice outfit for them to wear for the day. Wouldn't it be nice if we could pick the shell we wanted each hermie to...
Don't give up on one choosing that African Turbo some day when it gets bigger. None of mine would touch it for over a year but I kept it in the shell bin...
