So. . .

Well I'm thinking of giving my hermit crabs to another home.

Someone contacted me and they seem really good and have a big tank with 4 other hermit crabs.But I don't know if I should give them or not, these people seem really good and know their stuff.
I'm thinking I'll let them take Larry Jerry and Perry , because I would like to see them in a nice big tank with other crabbies, instead of my small tank (well it can hold more crabs with room to spare)

Do you guys think I should let them go?

well i suppose it all boils down to whether you want to have them or not. if you dont' want them then give them to this lovely home you've found. if you want them then keep them and give them some focus to make it more exciting for you. are you maybe bored with them? i find that understandable since they pretty placid things. try giving their tank some pizazz like new shells to rocks or whatever is safe for them

Thanks. I will probably give them to the new home as I would guess they would prefer to live with more of their own kind, as they live with 100 or more in th wild.

It's not that I'm bored of them (although they are pretty boring) I just feel bad keeping them in a small tank (well to me I find it small but if actually bigger than needed) and only having 3 where as their more of 'pack' animals. Their tank is actually very interesting with a colorful plastic ladder tube/tunnel things,plants and a little tennis net.
Also they aren't very handleable.And as I said before these people really seem good and spoil them

Oh and I'm not one of those people who just buys pets keeps 'em for a couple of months and then get rid of them, these people contacted me a offered a really good home and I am considering it

I'll let you guys know if their going to the new home or not.

well i hope you find making your decision easy. either way i support you, i too have given animals away to "better" homes where they'd be happier. *hugs* keep us updated
