Anybody wanting to get rid of a hermit crab?

Question

I'm looking to get a new hermit crab, but don't want to support the industry. Is there anyone out there who has a hermit crab they don't want anymore? Perhaps a purple pincher type? Thanks!

Answer 1

I'm not parting with my babies, but have you tried placing notices in classifieds. There are many free classified adds online where you can put notices. That's how I adopted some of my crabs. Also put notes up at pet shops. This time of year many people are buying crabs then realizing they need more work then they thought.

Also make sure you have an isolation unit. You don't want to put the adopted animals in with your animals right away.

Freecycle is a great way to get shells and supplies too as another tid bit of information.
