Hi, I am moving about 30 minutes away and am planning on using a critter keeper to transport my hermies. However, one of my crabs is buried. (I have two crabs). What should I do? I am afraid to dig him up. Please let me know!
Thanks.

Digging the crab up once should be okay. Just don't dig them up regularly.

Re: moving- transporting crabs
Would you happen to know where he is burrowed? If so, anyway you can scoop the whole area (like put a glass down over where he is, put something flat under the cup and pick up that who glass area to be put into another container?
