Extremely good pebbles (hard to get now), most damp, inside molting container. You can find in my Bing folder on the Hermies. The brand new good posts is in the images of one’s Lego wall space that they tore asunder. Jon is within the head tank photo which have typical gravel shortly after an effective molt. Carol
I recently planned to tell you that a good Lego wall structure really works really well right here

Well, nobody’s replied but really, Maryann. I recently complete all of them with liquids and place her or him in growlr search a full bowl of water and microwave oven on the five minutes (boiling). I quickly move him or her well to get out the fresh new rubbish. This is my personal processes for brand new shells or of them having been employed by that crab and you may discarded. Another crab constantly desires hands me lows. Maybe a rounded container clean is suitable to-arrive inside? Or Qresources? The pinky? Carol
From: crabworks Date: Thu Subject: Re: Change to my Hermies..for this week! Oct My personal dated crabs constantly dug below a bit of record otherwise a rock so you’re able to molt. Now I want to promote them with listings to hang them upwards. As far as i believe that they need a wet substrate in which so you can molt securely, Really don’t believe it enjoy under water items manageable to help you moisten the new substrate otherwise under food delicacies having an excellent treat immediately after molting . (I know you’re kidding, Marie.) I think just what everyone is enjoying ‘s the dependence on an effective crab so you can burrow less than something flat to manufacture good nest and also to become a safety rooftop above. And you will I understand it assists if the water are spilled about procedure, even when accidental. I’m a company believer during the a moist molting substrate. Assume y’all remember that. ?? I’ve been convinced which more than for a long time. My thoughts is inspired by private observations. People takers about? Carol away from CrabWorks

PS: Trust in me, when they you will definitely just do it how they accustomed, I would personally feel very thankful. If i had a huge container which have extremely strong pebbles…well, Really don’t also it could well be tough to ensure that it it is enjoying sufficient and you may would want a lot of pebbles for terrible mom to cleanse. I am unable to also look for any further okay pebbles. So…the newest designer is always available. ??

Hey gals and you can males, Immediately after studying a whole lot on forest sleep (bedding), I decided to try it. I got the newest stone (TRex) sawed with the household and you will soaked you to area. I quickly dependent a good Lego wall structure along the head tank, and you will filled in the a quarter of one’s container with forest bedding. This new Lego wall structure works very well, interestingly enough (middle dimensions Legos), which have pebbles on one hand and you can from the one or two in of forest bed linen on the other. Well, my personal a couple crabs are not appearing overjoyed to have it. It bring occasional strolls involved, but mainly stick to the new gravel front. You will find used it having and instead an effective UTH not as much as it. About it haven’t pulled a lot of they for the gravel. It was value an attempt. Perhaps on molt day they are going to think its great. I shall let it rest around a small longer in the main tank. Legos didn’t act as walls to hold upwards a record roof when they was in fact strengthening molting nests. Jon and you may Kate entirely forgotten the brand new structure while they made an effort to search so you can Asia. If you remember, We even rubberized banded the new Legos together, and they constricted aside every elastic bands. Seems, in what I was capable understand right here, that little crabs in this way Forest Sleep the best. And jumbos look not to promote an excellent hoot. Carol
