Hey everyone.
My wife has hermit crabs (i prefer snakes myself), but anyway several have died now and we are worried.
The last one to die, sat in the water dish, hung on for several days and then finally died. He just sat there in the water dish not moving. We had only had him for a few weeks.
ONe of our oldest crabs died just a little while after we brought some new crabs into the terrarium, he seemed to be scard of them? He would try to stay away from them and hide away from them. We found him dead one morning.
The earliest one to die we found dead in a partial molt, he was half way moltd and died.
Anyone that can help, please do so, we are running out of ideas.
Thanx
Lee and Beth
