Prada & Me~

     I never really get to see my little girl too much as Prada is always hiding and only comes out when its dark (I've noticed her time to play is roughly between three am to five am). So today, because I have a couple of hours before I have to run to work, I thought I'd have some bonding time with Prada. Of course I snapped some pictures :3 

She was slowly coming out for me and I was waiting patiently :3

There she is, looking so cute.
Here I was gently brushing her feet in some water to remove the sand but I never submerged her.
  

     Sorry about the pictures facing the wrong direction, I can't seem to figure out how to right it.I took many more but these were my favorite ones :) I hope you enjoyed the pictures as much I do. Also, just as a reminder: Prada is my crab who is missing her largest claw, I bought her that way from a pet store I shop at often. I'm assuming she was in a fight with another hermit crab.

Until next time,

Why a blog?

     Never in all my life would I have thought that I would own a crab, two on top of it. But now that they are here I'm sure they're not going anywhere. I have two small crabs at the moment, Chloe and Prada: named for their shells and my sisters love of fashion. I did have another before these two, however, named Hermes but he was a fighter and so after placing a question on Yahoo!answers I thought it best to take the advice given to me and return him to my local pet store. After peace was returned to ten gallon crabitat I realized that as much as I hear Hermit Crabs are an "easy pet" it's not completely true. 
     
     I am always searching up new things for my little roommates (diet, substrate, shells, etc.) and wish I had someone to ask directly. Thus my Hermie Diaries blog was born. 
    
     Plus, it'll be nice to have a spot where I can show off my crabs and see other peoples as well :3

Until next time,
