Friends?

Post by ZuZu »

I just noticed this but two of my crabs are always together eating playing and sleeping. They are always together and dont ever play with the other crabs, and if one leaves the tank the other seems to get deppressed, wont come outta his shell, and is generaly sulky. I Just want to know are anybody elses crabs like this? (?)

My two E's are like "crabby see, crabby do!" They spend quite some time together. When I got them in Ocean City, MD, the man in the store told me they looked like brothers. So I guess they share that "brotherly bond." They probably looked like brothers because everybody else in the cage was looked to be a PP!

My EE and PP, banjo and blu, are very good buds. They spend all sorts of time together, and hang out in the same pot. :)
