New Additions

Post by krabby_katie »

I bought two hermit crabs while I was in town today. Got them from a Wal-mart. No, they were not in a cup, thankfully. They were kept if fairly good conditions: glass tank, cover on it, sand, cocohut, and food. Pretty darn good for a Wal-mart. They didn't have water though... I was impressed though, because the last time I was there, they didn't have hardly anything there for them. Well, I finally found a PP! He's got beautiful colors, and he's so tiny. His name is Jorgen von Strangle. I named him after the huge buff fairy from the tv show Fairly Odd Parents. I thought it would be a funny name, because the character is huge, and he's tiny. The other one, I'm not sure what she is, but her name is Calypso.

Want to help me out with the species that Calypso is?

She's sooooooo cute. She looks like the others you have but a bit darker. And hairy-er. I'm really bad with species but i'll take a guess. She looks like an ecuadorian judging by the eyestalks and coloring and just general shape. She's also very close to being a rug. im not sure

Alright, thanks. I'll post a picture of Jorgen tomorrow. I have to get a good picture of him with his bright purple claw out. He's got very pretty colors for a PP.

Thanks. :) There's still a little chirping going on... But it's been slowly decreasing.
