How to
choose the decorated hermit crab shell of the proper size?
One
of the most crucial aspects while choosing a shell for your hermit is its size.
Most of the decorated
hermit crab shells are said to be of 3 inches in total width, but the only thing
that matters for a crab is the diameter measurement of the opening.
You
can easily find a shell caliper to precisely measure the opening of a shell.
However, you can also accurately measure it by eyeballing the opening on a
ruler. The hermit crabs which are smaller in size usually inhabit in shells of
size ? inch to ½ inch, whereas the medium-sized crabs inhibit in ½ inches to 1
inch, and the larger ones in 1 inch to 1 ? inch. The jumbo crabs need shells
with an opening diameter of almost 3 inches or larger. Once you are done with
accurately measuring the crab’s size, select decorative shells that are about ?
to a ¼ inch wider than the shell in which your hermit crab is currently
inhibiting.
Another
thing which you have to keep in mind while choosing a decorated hermit crab
shell is the shape of the opening. Your crab might only choose shells with a
round or D-shaped openings. So, it is better to check the current shell’s
opening shape, before getting another one.
