Post by iluvhermies »

My crabitat is an absolute mess. I think evreyone is digginf down or surfacing. I am however very excited my largest crab in the clunkie shell has gone under. I have had him since Feb. I will let you know. I am not sure how many have dug under and up I need to check later tonight. Hubby works 3rd shift and is sleeping right now.

there's a hole inside one of the hermie huts, one by the plant where lemi and wendy are buried, and a pile of sand that's come up over the last 24 hours where i heard digging and that's where ike buried himself. i don't hear anything anymore but i'm keeping my fingers crossed. and of course there's the pile of sand next to the sponge where bebe went under. hopefully i'll see her and ike soon. lemi should be coming up in the next week.

i found Qwerty freshly molted the day and probably the hour i came back from vacation! looked like he had just finished that day! anyways, now he is recovering. and Peanut burried himself (he just molted like May!) and Gumbo went under too (he's been doing this since i got him. i dont' know if he is going to molt or what!)

she shouldn't be....she just came up 2 weeks ago....but then again her and lemi have been doing this seesawing thing (when one comes up, the other goes down). lemi came up today, so maybe she is molting. who knows. oh yea! LEMI AND IKE CAME UP TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BOTH HAVE SWITCHED SHELLS AND ARE AS ACTIVE AS EVER! i missed them so much.
