Land Hermit Crabs are an exotic pet that have been a very misunderstood in the pet trade since the early 1970's. I became obsessed with these exoskeleton creatures and this is my page about everything I have learned about them and how to properly care for and keep them happy and healthy in captivity.

I run this website by myself and our rescue is ran from out of my own pockets that goes towards rescuing and rehabilitating land hermit crabs and finding them new homes. Please take a look at our links and read more about fascinating hermit crabs! -"Crabby J"
