Sometimes he slams his shell down when I come into the room too fast or he'll scoot backward staring at me. :D He's such a silly goose. The other hermies are just like he is for the most part.

aww....i moved my bird up into my room the other day, because i felt bad every one was forgetting about him even though he never shut up, but anyways, you would think my crabs would be terrorfied of them,(seagulls) but no mr.finger was fasinated by him! see the crabitat is on my dresser,and zacky(my bird) is in between my bed an my dresser, so anyways mr.finger climbs on top of his drift wood to get a good veiw of zacky, and hes just sitting there with the cutest look on his face, him and zacky just staring at each other. next thing you know miko's up there, then malibu, than later, even hachi!! it was a sight! zacky was even singing to them, it seemed like...(well seemed like more of someone choking...hes got a not-so-steady-voice haha)

all my crabs seem to be in the fake, half of a hollowed log when im in my room, somtimes i find them at the food bowl, but never at the water bowls, they must go there at night. all of my crabs are really cautious when i hold them and it takes about a minute for them to come out, except junior, as soon as i pick him up he is out of his shell and walking on my hand. :D
crabs:bino, junior,kim, and vixen
dogs: ella, shannon
cats:milo, poppy
and two budgies: romeo and big bird
Rip: HOMER(who was actually a girl so i re named him marge)RIP kath hyper and hazel.

all his legs are cut in half, from being in the petstore,and his antena also...he was also in a tank flooded with freezing cold water, and he was the only live crab i could find.he was also in a hirible painted shell that was way to small for him...he changed in a shell almost 2 times the size and fits him good!
