Feeling crabby?

Posted on July 6th, 2009 by lapazfarm

This is the third type of crab I’ve had on my blog recently!

Land Hermit crab (Coenobita clypeatus) showing off his beautiful Atlantic Moon snail (Polinices duplicatus)  shell home.

Found this guy creeping around the base of the house on the 4th of July. He was pretty big, about the size of my hand with his legs stretched out.

    Sorry this comment is off topic!
    I am working on a series of articles of interviews with inspiring children’s educational activity bloggers and I was wondering if you might be interested in answering a few questions for me. You can contact me at starrwd at gmail. Thanks:)
