About this item
DESCRIPTION

Hermit crabs are fun, fascinating little creatures that make great pets for your home or classroom. They are easy and economical to care for and their crabby antics like climbing, digging, molting and shell switching are as entertaining as they are educational. Despite the fact that they are indeed crabs, hermit crabs are actually quite docile and can be handled by their Pet Parents. They are anything but hermits and enjoy the company of others. And they love toys! Hermit crabs love to climb on just about anything and decorating your new friend's "crabitat" will make for a fun family or class project.
