Is anyone rehoming any Ecuadorian crabs? We're in Southern California and are looking for another E so our current E has a friend. He is with 8 PPs and seems lonely still 😔 TIA

Here is an example of what we feed our hermit crabs here at Coleman Cove.

Please note: CALCIUM, GREENSAND AND WORM CASTINGS should be offered 24/7

A lot can change in 25 years.

Land hermit crab care once commonly meant a tiny plastic enclosure, gravel, a sponge, commercial pellets and a spare painted shell.

Today, knowledgeable keepers talk about deep substrate, proper heat and humidity, marine and freshwater pools, biological needs, dietary diversity, natural shells, enrichment, species differences—and behaviors we were barely beginning to understand when CSJ started.

Some of what we taught years ago has changed, too.
That's important.

Good animal care isn't about defending the advice we've always given. It's about being willing to change that advice when observation, experience and better evidence tell us we should.

Twenty-five years of CSJ isn't 25 years of having all the answers.

It's 25 years of continuing to learn.

Our captive bred baby Dolly has been so active! I love looking over and watching her explore and nap.

If I see movement in my tanks, you better believe I'm right there with my camera 🤣

CB babies update: These babies have been exploring EVERYWHERE! They are napping in moss and preferably up high. I'm not sure if they have made it to their food but they have been eating a lot of essentials such as, greensand, worm castings and a TON of calcium. Yesterday, they found some of the many oil dishes I have placed throughout the tank. I can confirm: hermithootopia oils have been a hit with the babies 😁
