You can hold it, but dont hold it too long. They also play with other hermit crabs in the tank, like climbing. If you dont have more than 1 hermit crab Now, you need another one because hermit crabs are very social and love to have a mate, and they can die from stress of not playing.
You can but you and your crab should be comfortable with the little guy crawling on you.
1.Get it's favorite treat or food, and put a smalll amount on your hand.
2.Let it crawl around on your hand with the food on it,if it pinches,DO NOT sling your hand around,that could disrupt it's organs,remember,they ARE softshelled.
3.If it doesn't work after like 20 min. put it back in the cage and take out food in cage,then wait about 10 min. then repeat,it will probably be hungry,if not repeat ALL steps.And wait.It worked for me.But try asking a professional.I hoped this helped!
hold it upside hold it on its back
hold it only that way or it'll die
There really isn't a wrong way. But the safe way is to have thumb and fingers pointing forward on the main part of the shell just behind the claws so it can't pinch you.
You hold him from the tip of the shell
yes if you have hands
Means the crab hides in his shell and doesn't play with the other crabs.
they don't like each other and want to get away from each other.
a hermit crab
What is a Hermit Crab's predator?
Let your hermit crab craw on your shirt but hold your hands under just in case they fall. Build a park for your hermit crab. Pile books clothes and other things it can climb on. Let your hermit crab craw on your hand and when he or she gets to the edge turn your hand. That's great exercise for your hermit crab. Buy another hermit crab to play with yours and so your doesn't get lonely. Hope this helps. Search me on instagram as aidan312
It's term 'hermit' is not because it doesn't like other hermit crabs. The hermit crab actually loves being with other hermits. It is called hermit crab because it is only one hermit crab in the shell. It's term 'hermit' is not because it doesn't like other hermit crabs.

If it is a hermit crab, then it is like any other hermit crab, so just take care of it as you would to a regular hermit crab :)
hermit crab family always helps
a hermit crab can be from 1cm - 17.5cm in length!
The opposite of a hermit crab is a social butterfly.
maybe he is tired and wants to sleep.
It depends who the Hermit Crab borrowed its shell from.
