I used to have some, but unfortunately, most would die shortly after I acquired them. There was one, however, whom I named Lola, that I had for nearly 10 years! She got bigger and bigger, until I was struggling to find seashells that were big enough for her. I used to let her out of her aquarium to wander around the living room. She'd spend hours scuttling around under the furniture. I tried giving her companions, but she was so much bigger than they were that she bullied them and killed them unless I kept them separated. Poor Theodore lost two limbs, which Lola ate! She loved bananas and lettuce. I am not sure why she died several years ago, but one day I found her listless and pale. Within hours, she was dead. :o( I miss that goofy hermit crab.
So, tell me your hermit crab stories. :o)
