Hermit Crabs are sickos!

[mm2002]

So my daughters hermit crab escaped three days ago. We've torn the fucking house apart looking for the damn thing, but never found it. This morning I get out of the shower, drying off, and I look down between my feet and there's the fucking crab....just sitting there looking up at me with those "stem mounted" bug eyes. Was it just coincidence, or are these little fuckers just wierd??? I can't even walk past his cage now without remembering that "moment". He just sits there and looks at me.

"I wonder what kind of crab lives in that thing, and where'd he find a shell that big?"

The threshold of too much information..........

At least he didn't jump up and bite your scrotal sac.

Speaking from exprience there Joe?.. lol

Hermit crabs are even weirder when out of thier shells. They look very alien like.

Maybe he was checking them for pupils..He looks at you funny now trying to figure out how you navigate your "cage" with your eyes in a pair of Levi's....

We had 2 recently...for what seemed like YEARS. Then they both died, as did a crayfish that escaped and hide behind our shoe rack until he dried out.

Only another crayfish, 5 lizards, 2 cats and a dozen fish to go until I'm free of my children's pets that they SWEAR they are going to take care of if we buy them CAN WE CAN WE CAN WE?????

This PSA is for all you guys that are thinking of having kids...

Set the cats on the rest

Mark,

So you're sayin' you have crabs ..... Better get that looked at !!!!

I had a pair too. Of course they die pretty easily. One dropped his shell off and acted like a streaker and we kinda forced him back in the shell thanks to a little help from the Internet. But in the end, not long after, he died naked in "The Hut of Doom" (a half coconut shell made up to look like a hut).

I tell the kids, "No more pets !!", so I put my foot down and now we only have a cocker spaniel, 2 cats, a turtle and a fish tank !! That'll show 'em huh ???
