Mall Hermie

Post by HermieLove19 »

Yesterday when i took a hermie from the mall i saw one that was hanging out of his shell and missing his third set of legs. i felt so terrible and wanted to take him home but he looked lke he was already gone. I hope he gets better or goes to a better place with all the shells and sand he needs to get through his next life stress-free.

That's so sad. :'( The staff at petstores and other places should learn how to take care of hermit crabs properly. Although I have met some people who work at pet stores who are actually very knowlegable on the care of hermies so I guess it just depends.

When I passed the crab cart again they were selling EVERYTHING including the tanks they kept the hermies on display in. One crab was missing the big piece of his big claw and I wanted to take him so badly but I just didn't have the room at the time.
