Hello my beloved followers and viewers, its great to be on here again.
I have been keeping up on comments via phone and am still so warmed to see how many people out there love these little guys and seek help on care, from me!
It breaks my heart to tell you all a few pieces of news involving my crabbies and this blog.
Firstly, I will not be posting anymore for reasons listed below. Unless I discover some news on care, on availability/popularity/anything at all on them I will no longer be putting up new posts. I WILL HOWEVER KEEP THIS UP and keep answering any and all questions. I did keep and love these guys for years. I am so happy to give anyone the help and correspondence they need. PLEASE DONT FORGET everything you need to know is here! I have posts about housing, care, everything I could think of!
Secondly, In October I woke in the middle of the night to many strange noises going on in my room, I got up to check everyone (I also have other noturnal creatures in my room) to find that Bubbles was dragging Jack into a hide. THIS IS NOT A GOOD SIGN. I quickly grabbed him away from her and shooed her into the burrow and away. Jack was limp. I put him into a bin for examination and he was sadly dead. Beyond any sort of help, Bubbles had attacked him and crushed much of the front left of his carapace along with im assuming eating some of his legs, as they were completely missing.
It is my educated guess that he had been mid molt, and Bubbles (being the nasty aggressive meany she always was) took advantage to get him. Normally id attribute this to hunger, but they were always very WELL fed. *sigh*
The Last part of this news is that I then rehomed Bubbles. As much as I love these creatures I am too emotional. It made me so mad at her, Jack had been the sweet one. Still timid but he at least came out, showed himself and observed me. She made me SO MAD. I decided it would be best to rehome her, put her with someone who would give her the care and attention she deserved. I know they cant understand when were yelling and angry at them, they arent dogs. But i was literally calling her foul names every time i misted/fed/changed water.... It was best to give her a loving home.
In conclusion the quick facts are that no, I no longer own these animals. But I did nothing wrong in their care to cause this. And I am still keeping this blog up and tuned so that anyone who needs help and info can get it!! its linked to my email, I will see you commented, I will answer when I can.
Thank you to my few followers and the many people i have connected with because of this blog. I hope it continues to help people!
