## Description

Although you might think the hermit crab is its own species, there are actually hundreds and hundreds of them! However, most of the hermit crabs that are owned as pets are one of a handful of specific species. The name hermit crab is derived from the fact that hermit crabs carry their shells, which are also their homes, on their back. Although this hand painted figurine already has a home of its own, we’re sure it would still love to come back to yours! 4.5 inches wide and 2.5 inches tall, this figurine is a bit wider than a deck of cards stood on its side. These creatures can be many different colours, shells especially, and this hermit crab is a pinkish-orange colour with a light tan shell. Hermit crab species differ widely from one another. Some are only a few millimetres long, whereas others can grow to be the size of a coconut. Similarly, their life spans can range anywhere between ten and eighty years. On the whole, there are six different families and over 1,000 species of hermit crabs that are contained in the superfamily Paguroidea.

Review: My 2 year old absolutely loves it! It's a firm rubber that's semi-posable, so he can easily move its arms. Its solid, so he can even play with it in the bath without me worrying about mold! It has the cutest (and creepiest) little face and the most beautiful paint job, he loves it so much 😁 totally worth the money, I'm genuinely shocked at the quality I received for what I paid
Review: Love this little guy. Looks great. It's agood size. A orop for a soon to be released book.
