Fights
Okay, so I got some new hermies today. Xena hates the new female, Calypso. As soon as I gave them all a bath together and put them in the tank, I heard chirping. I looked over to see Xena was picking on Calypso! It's not fair, because Xena is atleast twice as big. I have put, both, Calypso and Jogen von Strangle (other new one) in iso for now. Anything I can do to make them get along? I don't thing that Xena likes other females...

Re: Fights
When I introduced new hermies i heard chirping and saw some fights. They just like having their own space i think. when i new hermie went into eugene's hut he got angry. after two days they each found places the really like and now theyre okay. I think it takes time for them to get used to each other.

Re: Fights
Oh, okay. I just don't want Calypso to lose anymore legs! I didn't notice when I bought her, but she's missing half of one leg. Xena is so much bigger than her too. I don't want anything to happen to Calypso. ![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)

Re: Fights
I just introduced a new hermie i got from the mall and suprisingly haven't heard any chirping and i see them waving their little antennas around at each other all the time. I think it was because she's a pp and the majority of crabs i have are pp's. But that might not have anything to do with it at all. i don't know.

Re: Fights
when i was wanting new hermies, i'd take as many as my own that were up and bring them with me. then i would place the new one in the travel tank with the others and watch the interraction. anyway, i'd keep an eye on the girls, but they should get better.

Re: Fights
That haven't fought in a while. No more chirping coming from the tank at night. That might be because one of themis molting, but oh well. lol.

Re: Fights
whenever the aggresive one comes over the defender will push it away with its big claw
