Hermit Crabs

Sooo we might be getting a couple hermit crabs!!! Basically we've been watching one for a few days and I must admit I grew rather attached. The crab was very interesting to watch and interact with. Heck even the dogs seemed to like it. Bo was even a tad obsessed(he slept by the tank when it was on the ground) and while his obsession was rather adorable and intriguing well when Abby decided to investigate the crab he went after her. So he was definitely resource guarding the tank. He had to be separated from the others for a few hours. Then we only let him out after we removed the crab from the equation.

Anyway like I said mister crabs was very interesting and just all around awesome. They're also great little pets though a lot of work with the whole keeping the tank at the proper temp and humidity etc. At any rate my mom agrees that the hermit crab was pretty great and even claimed that she thought about getting one for us(of course it would end up likely being a pair or possibly more!). I figured I'd also throw in that it would be a great addition and the kids she watches would love getting to watch and interact with them(especially the little boy who's currently obsessed with crabs). 

So looks like sometime soon we may have a few more new additions. Super excited haha
