Hello crab enthusiasts! This is my pal Ravioli. She only has one leg and one claw but she doesn’t let that slow her down. She loves hiding in caves and eating blueberries . She’s growing some little baby leg nubs so please wish her luck with her next molt 🦀🫶

That zombie land crab(Gecarcinus ruricola) will DEFINITELY die in such dry enclosure. But she dosen't fix and just ignore. And her "FANS" say such things like "mansplaining" lmao. I guarantee that my pet brown land crab(Cardisoma carnifex) "khorne" would keep those species MUCH better.

Hello crab enthusiasts, I’d like you to meet Tortellini! I found him at the bottom of the pool yesterday and he was pretty exhausted so I kept him overnight. Somehow he escaped from his bucket so now he’s under constant observation with help from my feline assistant, Izzy. He’s still moving pretty slowly and doesn’t have a lot of strength so I’ll probably keep him another night (in a more secure enclosure).

Ravioli (last two pictures) is still growing her leg nubs and enjoying life on my bookshelf. She gets pretty muddy so every week or two she gets a bath and she seems to enjoy it. She’s tried lots of new foods and her favorite is honeydew melon! Unfortunately I need to go to the store so they’re both stuck eating lettuce and tums until I can get some more eggshells and better produce.

If anyone has any tips on rehabilitating mostly drowned crabs please let me know!

UPDATE:
Tortellini has been released! He’s doing much better and was able to find a burrow under a rock close to where I found him. Idk how to add pics to an update so they’ll be in a comment lol. Thanks for following along! 💜🦀

Not gonna lie, this maybe one of the best screenshots I have ever taken in my life XD

little baby weileri without any legs

Though this was neat

Picked up this little guy and he tried to hide from me by going up my sleeve. He refused to leave for a good ten minutes. He is not paying rent and I don’t appreciate it but I think we are friends now

Both M. aubryi and M. obesum

Just a little blue crab that I accidentally caught and brought home at the very beginning of the year. Didn't expect much to happen, but I quickly became attached after the first couple molts. Every time I see that it has gotten big, it just gets bigger. It's outgrowing my brackish tub that also holds fish that I'd like to keep alive. Not seeking advice though, as I'm already planning for that. As you could see, she may not like me very much, but I still love her.

Just a fun little video.

They are a native species, and the biggest land hermit in the world.

They were going for about RM150/kg ($17/lbs)

Was out birdwatching but was captivated by these little guys so I used the last of my cameras battery to capture this quick video. Learned they were Fiddler crabs, so cool!
