Every time i have seen this it usually means they will die. I had two pairs of crabs go through this and not one of them lived. The crab is stressed possibly so it is best not to bath her for a while and not handle her too much.

Umm. well its sorta normal becuase it can grow back but it may be serouis becuase that means your hermit crab may die it may be caused by cage weather type of meals and water because i have 2 hermit crabs but if its big it means its to old so it may die

It will be fine. It's claw will grow back. If only humans had that ability.
