i have a wild hermit crab--at least i think thasts what he is called...he started out as a shell for Jo--i didnt see the lil guy in there...she left said shell at my house when she went back to NY...2 days later i found out that he managed to chew his way out of the plastic bag,falla few feet to the floor and head for the door....i bough him an aquarium,go to the beach periodically for fresh sand..got him some rock and coral in there...bought him 2 friends--both died..but ol Woody is going strong....at first i would get him out of his cage every few days,but he wouldnt come out of his shell till i cupped my hands over him and blew on him....the first few times i went a long period of time without getting him out he would bite me AND pee on me before proceeding to climb all over me.


i still have Woody a yr and a half or so later!
