Re: When?
I know it's hard to wait for your crabs...both of mine (the only ones I have!) are molting...I've found it helpful to stop worrying about when to expect them up and just wait it out, if that makes sense. I was going crazy trying to figure out the day that they'll come up, and when I stopped, it just became more fun to try to get their 'tat to be perfect for when they do come up. I've attached my humidity gauge to the wall, I've added a soap dish second layer, two aquarium plants, I've ordered a hemp corner net and ladder (which come with moss!) from the addiction store, and I got a bunch of different addiction store food so that they have the best time ever when they come up.
To get back to your question, though, he should probably take between 1 and 1.5 months. So you'll probably have around another 2-3 weeks.

Re: When?
We are not your crabs so only your crabs know when they will come up. We can give estimates but they are only estimates. I would say about 2 - 3 more weeks.

Due to family issues my crabs have been adopted out to wizkidsmom (Cheryl), I know she will care for them like I did. Thanks Cheryl

Re: When?
well my golf ball size crab was down for 2 and a half months. My micro E has been down for 1 month but micros are estimated to stay down for a few days to 2 weeks.
