Hermit Crab Supplies

One of the easiest exotic pets of keep is the land hermit crab. With out the need to walk or wash the dog , or the problems that go along with the litter box, you can see where the crab would be much simpler. With no bird cage to clean or no fish tank to partly drain and then readjust the chemicals of the Water, you can see where the land hermit crap may be easier. Also there is no problem if you are allergic to the animal fur.

With out all of the needed attention listed above for the other pets, the hermit crab supplies are also just a little bit simpler also. The first item would be the hermit crab cage of course. A 10 gallon fish tank is a good start after the crab of course. If you live near the beach, you can just walk out there and help yourself. Some of the souvenir shops along the beaches will also sell the crabs. If not near the ocean, most of the pet stores will offer the hermit crabs. Most of the places will sell the small, plastic carrying case. Please do not use this as a home for your pet. It is really to small after the hermit crab supplies are placed inside there as well. If it is possible, try to purchase more then one or two of the crabs.. The term of the hermit crab is wrong as the crabs travel in packs and have been known to have more then 100 crabs together. It is believed this also makes finding and exchanging the hermit crab shells to be easier with more crabs around.

The crabs like to do two different things, dig and climb. It is suggested to have the bottom of the cage part sand and part forest bedding. The sand can be purchased from the local hardware stores or the home improvement stores. Make sure it is clean, dry, free of insects and does not have a funny or bad order that might indicate it has been contaminated. The forest bedding can be obtained from the pet stores. This might come in a hard brick form and may have to be soaked in water. Follow the manufactures instructions that are on the side of the bag. The use of salt in the water will help the hermit crab to obtain some of the minerals that they need for a healthy diet. For the climbing, just a piece of driftwood will work. Just make sure the top of the cage is covered as the crab will climb out.

A few more supplies such as the food and water dishes are needed. It is believed that what ever food is good for us humans it is also good for the land hermit crab. Keep in mind the fatty foods are lots of sugar is bad for us and the crabs. While you can purchase hermit crab food in the pet stores, they like the same things we like.
