i deaf, need subtitles.
@supaflychic911
duh, i am so stupid :O) of course that would be a pretty good reason
@cheryl4967 – Im guessing for the deaf ppl :]
Why have the title saying How to breed a hermit crab,if in the beginning he says there is no possible way?!?!?!!?
i can hear you talking so why the subtitles ???
@prettiepinksh ok that was my bad lolz.
@DraconianSilenced actually, these painted shells are not self-painted. they are store bought. i saw a shop selling these colourful shells before. (:
@SOXFOX painted shells are bad bad bad. when the paint chips. guess what? mr/mrs.hermie dies. they can eat the paint pollute the water and other hermies will die from eating it. SAY NO TO PAINTED SHELLS!
@DraconianSilenced So? It’s not like the crab is negatively affected by it, and if it were so bothered by it, it would change into a new shell. I see hermit crabs who actually prefer painted shells over non painted shells, so I see no problem.
you can breed hermit crabs in captivity it has been done get your facts straight
Painted shells are awful.
cool
just look at stomach look it up on hermies
yes u can in water
pheagles777 need to shut up it is no way you can breed a hermit crab
so wait you said how to breed captive born hermit crabs so if no one can breed them then how are they captive born???????
hermits cant live in that painted shells forever bcuz if the paint flakes off, the can eat it and die.get natural shells
they can drown if you dont put the water on the sponge
if u cant breed hermit crabs then y make a vid dick head
they’re like frogs…gotta live in water in 1st cycle of life, then wet land the 2nd part
theres alot of debate about hermit crabs being able to drown because they have gills but are land crustaceans
Those painted shells are gaudy. Wouldn’t a natural shell look better?
wtf?????? the last vid i saw bout hermit crabs said they can drown -.-
