I really don’t have any interest in hermit crabs, but the second I saw the “Crab Barn” at the mall, I knew I had to ask.
At the mall, in the middle where they have different vendors in a rollaway carts, there was this guy whose cart was called the “Crab Barn”. He had a huge set up with probably crabs. It was set up kind of on a large turtle table with sand, rocks, sponges (which I assumed held water) and a bunch of painted shells for the crabs to go into. Questions:
-I have no idea what a proper set up is for crabs, but is this kind of a crude set up? No real water access, no heat or humidity controls.
-You could pick your own shell for the crab, which came in horribly tacky painted varieties. (If I were a crab, I would clearly make fun of the other crabs that wore tie-dyed painted shells with a big smiley face on the top, but that’s just me, as a crab.)
-There were so many crabs that I think a sheet was just throw over the cart at night so no one stole it. I don’t think they sell too many of them, there was no line near the man with crabs. (Sorry, I just made myself giggle.
)
I’m not too sure what sort of responses I’m looking for, but this cart at the mall just seemed really odd to me, almost not right. What’s your opinion on the Crab Barn?
