  • Can we eat the spider crab??

  • I've eaten the legs before (a long time ago), and they were okay, but not as good as like a king crab or a stone crab or something like that.

  • Thats a Sheeps crab. Sheeps crab. (Loxorhynchus grandis) They get quite large.

  • Originally I called it a sheeps crab and someone posted "it's a spider crab."
