Does your question fit in other forums?

Post by Wai »

The number of topics in the Chirp & Chat forum is increasing rapidly everyday with questions that could have been posted in a more specific forum, such as Moulting, Nutrition etc. If possible, post your questions in those other forums which tell us what your question is emphasising about.

Crab Crew, if you have time, could you dig through the Chirp & Chat forum to move some topics that would best go in another forum?

Also, if anyone would like to suggest opening a new forum to dump a particular topic of posts, please let me know.

Thanks!

I have an idea for a new forum. Recipes.

It wouldn't get as many posts but I think its a pretty good idea.

As for those wishing to post announcements about adopting new hermit crabs, why not post it in your journal? Visit the Journals forum and make a new thread of your own (if you haven't already) and post your updates there. That way this forum won't get jumbled with too many posts that would best fit in other forums.

Hi, I think a behaviour section would be great...

Hi Ginger, what kind of discussions about behaviour are you thinking of?

Hmm, maybe ones for general - friendly - crab behaviours, discussions about their social life :) E.g. what are they up to at night, oddities, different breeds personalities, communication etc.

Thats would be handy place to learn about these fascinating critters & for each of us to share our findings, like with breeding, mating, aggression ect! I totally support it! :)

Ohh, it's always great to hear an admin listen to it's members. :)
I hope the sub-forum does well.
