You can tell if they are a boy or a girl by looking at the abdomen and if it's a girl it will have to little holes on each side. If it's a boy it won't have any holes
We have just adopted 2 hermit crabs for my daughter...I was always told that they do not reproduce in captivity...is this true, (obiously yours did)??? if not how do you know male from female?
I don't believe that land hermit crabs can breed in captivity unless we have tidal pool & proper diet, but if your hermit crabs are the marine ones, there's still possibilities.
hermit crabs are so inteesting

I picked it coz I guess it's just living in backyards...'

hermit crabs dont give birth
they release eggs after the male fertilises them
this is very unlikely to happen in captivity
as they do this in the ocean
you would need a part salt water aquarium /terrainium ranging a 40-60 gallon tank
with both land and sea properties

Thats a lie..hermit crabs don't bread in captivity..and no one has got them to do it yet.

From the eyes & leg color, I identify that hermit crab as Coenobita violascens or Sunset/Komurasaki Land Hermit Crab
TheHawaiianDragon 3 years ago
I agree. The red antennae and violet body strongly suggests that the hermit crab is a member of C. violascens.
