In this post you will:

1. See my progress
2. Keep up with my crabs
3. See recent photos of my Crabitat
   

MY PROGRESS
So far with my crabitat I have;
-Priced up all the items need to keep my crabitat humid, warm, spacious and enjoyful for my crabs. The total cost was £107.53 which won't take me long to gather up over the weeks. ( I have attached a Word Doc of the costing please inform me if I need to add or upgrade some of the items. )
-Researched for days on how to care for my crabitat and crabs. I have also checked out a couple of books on hermit crab Anatomy. Whilst reading the books I have gained the knowledge of what to feed my hermits, how to keep them clean, how to keep my hermits healthy and how to make their lifes happy and loving.

MY CRABS
I do not yet have any crabbies but in the very near future I am hoping to own 3 or more hermits in my tank. I will start of fairly basic with a 10 gallon tank ( x2 one for molters ) and 3 PP's then hopfuly upgrade to a 20/30 gallon tank by the end of this year.

PHOTOS
( Will be posted as comments or I will directly put them on this post with either links or actual footage )

I absolutly love hermit crabs and I would love to care for some in the near future. At first I would care for two or three PP's in my tank then move onto a bigger tank and get some more PP's then in later terms I would possibly get an Ecudorian or two.

About me, I was born and raised on the small island of Jersey then at the age of 11 me and my family ( Mum, Dad, and two younger siblings ) moved to New Zealand. We lived in NZ for a couple of years but didn't think it was for us. After a big debate of where to move to we chose Glastonbury, Summerset. As soon as we have settled I will be buying and setting up my Crabitat and hope to buy some hermits later on.]]> Just saying a quick introduction and hello,

I was just doing a clean up and reorganise of the tat and was looking through my foods when i suddenly noticed a little mitey bug... then two little mitey bugs.... then all of a sudden I was seeing them EVERYWHERE!

They were little brown things and they had gotten in all my dry food Guests cannot see images in posts. Please register by clicking here to see images.

So I was very brave (yuck) and i washed some of the bags of food off and have salvaged about half, the rest i binned, along with a lot of the contents of the cupboard they were in. i cleaned the shelves and the other bits that were in there. I had emptied the bags of food onto a sheet on my bed so had to wash the sheet as well as there was a massive pile of the bugs on there Guests cannot see images in posts. Please register by clicking here to see images.

Then I hoovered all around the area and threw the bin bag with all the mites in out... is there anything else I can do? Ive now put the dry foods in a sealed lunchbox (they were in a double sealed bag before). How do I know they are not in with the hermies!!! They are so hard to see! How do I know thye havnt wandered all over the bed! ARGH! Guests cannot see images in posts. Please register by clicking here to see images. lol To be honest they didnt all seem like they were raving to move around, not very fast etc.

Oh, one final point, the kitten had been playing with an old shell in the cupboard just moments before I realised the mitey things were there... is he at risk at all? Hes wormed and stuff so should ok I think?

Sorry for long post... just panicking a little!]]> Guests cannot see images in posts. Please register by clicking here to see images.

Why do people get animals and then just let them loose in weather like this rather than try and find them a new home. Guests cannot see images in posts. Please register by clicking here to see images. Guests cannot see images in posts. Please register by clicking here to see images.
