Fun fact: hermit crabs will actually gather in circles and trade shells with each other. Those who have grown too big for theirs will pass it down to a smaller crab, and that one will pass its shell on too.

If you’ve told one lie, stolen anything, or lusted (which is adultery of the heart), you’ll be found guilty on Judgment Day and end up in Hell. But there’s good news: Though we broke God’s Law, Jesus, the prophesied Messiah, perfectly kept the Law, fulfilling all righteousness. He paid the fine for sinners ( that we could never pay ) by suffering and dying on the cross-absorbing the wrath of God that we deserve. “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” Then Jesus rose from the dead and was seen by hundreds of eyewitnesses. Today, repent and trust Jesus; God will grant you forgiveness and the gift of eternal life. God Bless

I would guess so, yes.

[@Sir_Ravenstein]

It is most of the time, underwater or in shadow, the heat will barely be a problem. It will not just walk in plain sunshine since predators can easily catch it then. About the toxicity, I don't know, but this guy doesn't treat them horrible. Probably, it's not toxic to them when you think about what everything is in the water o.O

[@ohheyfullmetal]

@Sir_Ravenstein he definitely did treat them pretty badly unfortunately, even if he didn't fully intend to 😅 the conditions he put them in during their captivity were not acceptable at all, and taking them out of the wild in the first place was not a good choice. So many hermit crabs are already being taken as part of a horrific trade, and he absolutely risked killing them with the setup; hermit crabs need very specific conditions to survive. Metal is extremely toxic to hermit crabs, so the new shell is worse for them than even the painted ones at beach shops. And these are land hermit crabs, not marine, so they aren't spending a lot of time in the water unless they're soaking. A much better thing he could've done is put out natural shells in areas with hermit crab populations, as tourists take shells and leave them without homes. There's some content creators that have put out over 15,000 shells and have significantly helped them in their natural habitat :)

As a former hermit crab caretaker, Im glad to see that you went with the plating for the outside. Metal would have potentially caused a reaction to the crabs soft body inside the shell, if they stayed in one, because a nice smooth interior is a big thing to them. Its not uncommon for a crab to leave a shell, not like the new one, and then get stranded because another crab took the shell they left. If you ever find a big group of them, you can make some musical chairs happen by putting one or 2 new fresh shells in the middle of them all.

@@chrisca That's a good question that I dont have an answer to. Hermit crabs grow like most other crustaceans, and if they eat well, most will do it every couple months up to a certain size / age, until they get older, and then it can just be once every couple years. (They can live to be 45 if you care for them right) I dont think anyone has ever figured out if hermies get swol from bigger shells.
