Raising a Grocery Store Blue Crab as a Pet

Keeping a blue crab from the grocery store has been something I've wanted to do for quite a while, and it turned out being even more fun than I thought! :)

@@B1-997 Then they would buy more. Sadly the only way to stop the cruelty is to boycott. If they know there is demand, they will want to sell them. If it becomes unprofitable to sell them, they will stop. Or make it illegal to sell live animals like that. But that's a whole other can of worms to open. As an individual, refusing to shop at places like that (and mentioning it to the manager) is the simplest and most effective thing to do.

[@p5eudo883]

There's no rescue or saving going on here. He's funding animal cruelty by paying the grocery store for these animals, ensuring that they buy/capture more animals to sell. And for every one they sell, there are probably multiple that were caught and died before they could make it to market. Not to mention the deaths of countless other animals from bycatch. This channel is using and abusing animals to get people to donate for his profit. And keep in mind that now those crabs that might have fed a family are being fed live animals by some huckster on KZbin who fools people into thinking he's rescuing animals. He's multiplying cruelty.

[@horusluprecal1144]

They aren't dogs. I find it unlikely that they are aware that they are being cared for in any capacity of affection ( i think proven by the fact that the crabs keep trying to claw the dudes hands) & while I can't prove it, i'd bet that both crabs would prefer to be back in the wild instead of confined to a small prison called an aquarium.

[@elin_]

@horusluprecal1144 ffs.. not only domestic animals feel things, and no, they're probably not super aware that someone saved them.. but so what?? Do you only give to charity when you can brag about it on social media? In the wild, they'd very likely be captured again, sold and eaten.

[@horusluprecal1144]

​@@elin_ Way to miss my point dude... "not only domestic animals feel things" Gee, thanks Captain obvious. Take note that i never said that they didn't. Try not to 'strawman' "they're probably not super aware that someone saved them" - try "not at all aware" " but so what??" I stated that he saved them from being eaten sure, but to be held captive in a small confined tank when i'm sure they'd rather be back in the wild. Domesticated animals such as dogs need providing homes, wild animals i'm sure would rather not be held in captivity. " Do you only give to charity when you can brag about it on social media?" what ever gave you the idea to say something so stupid. I'm not even on facebook, twitter, tik-tok or whatever else there is out there so unless you count You-Tube as social media, i'm not even on it. Nor do i have any videos showing the homeless pets that i've adopted or managed to return to their owners. What was even your point of posting? To show the world how big of a diick you are? I never said dude couldn't keep his crabs as pets. Just that 'unlike dogs who can & usually do figure out that they have been saved & exactly who did it, that the crabs are oblivious to that fact & if you could ask them, they'd rather be back in the wild. I don't think I can simplify it any further for you.

Second part is just strange though, of course you need an enclosure it cant just crawl out of, but thats again pretty much a given for every pet, and an octopus only lives for a couple minutes under ideal circumstances outside the water anyways, so its not like theres a risk of it getting out into the ecosystem.

Your plating skills are inspirational! It does my old lady heart good to see how much you love these creatures are are dedicated to caring for them properly. Love the unloved!

[@MarilynMonday]

I'm so grateful there are videos helping people get to know these different animals. Each one is so unique and full of personality. People tend to ignore that when they're hungry 😭 You'd think as an advanced species we could do better with this planet full of wonder!

[@diannarach1423]

They are so so wonderful!!!! I love crabs so much!!!

[@TallDarknGruesome]

Some crabs will blow bubble nests to conceal themselves, considering how exposed these crabs were, the combination of better oxygenation and a sense of cover was probably very appealing.

[@katyann4198]

Omg, I never thought watching two crabs eatin an ear of corn would pull at my heartstrings 😂 these two are cute!!!

Has this man saved the crab from an agony of being boiled alive? What a decent and caring human! ♥️

Right! I can't eat crab or lobster. It's barbaric. Humans need to do better.

Happy to see you never gave up on a blue crab pet

[@carrieannmcleod5219]

Gosh, this sounds almost like Leon's story. He is a grocery store rescued lobster that I've been following for two years. Who knew crustaceans would be that interesting.

[@thefrieguy4328]

The amount of joy this brings me is ridiculous

[@Trinity.Angel.in.Paradise]

What a FUN video... I couldn't stop smiling and laughing.... Thank you Josh!

[@PBWK]

This is what I wanted to do as a little kid when I first saw a live crab at the grocery store. Thank you for such a fun video to watch. I love how you gave life back to the crabs bringing out the playful side out of them.

[@2Cenery]

Dude this show was more awesome than 99% of the stuff on Netflix, Prime, and Max combined. Cool saves from the supermarket!

[@cathyadams2670]

I had such a good time watching this. Who would have ever thought about having blue crabs lobsters and an eel for pets. Loved this 👍👍👍👍

[@josuesepulveda6850]

Great job in saving these crabs and given them a second chance in life👍🏻

[@Sithman1776]

After watching shows like this and Leon the Lobster…. I’m amazed at how much personality and how smart these creatures are. I used to think of them as kinda mindless objects for food. Now I see them as really alive. I almost feel bad for eating them. Almost.

[@xdemidevilx475]

U should...

[@mopbucket-fv6cy]

you should

[@elithluxe7568]

You should. You’ll live without eating them…

[@amandagustafsson4589]

They're so much happier with you. Whatever happens to them, they will have lived the rest of their lives happily, which is a whole lot mpre than they would have experienced on a plate❤ Never give up!!
