Da Hermz Say Wazzup!

Hey, I haven't posted in such a long time, so sorry guys!!

The hermies are as active as ever. Its becoming oh-so-wonderful-winter so I have been using the heating pad, which I hate doing because it makes my tank look ugly, oh well, anything for my hermit crabs!

I never did find the lost crab! I have to sex them to see who I lost. I don't know what happened...its makes me sad to know I lost one of my hermies. The rest are going strong, they are all so big now, it makes it harder to tell them apart!! Someone just molted, I'm not sure who though. He's kind of pale, which makes me worry, but he hasn't grown his exo back so we'll see.

HAPPY THANKS GIVING! I forget to tell you! Well, I am going to give my crabbies some turkey and I wanted to give them cranberries, but I think my dad used them all for the sauce already. Maybe I'll give them krill. I have only used krill once because it stank up my room for a month afterwards so I've been weary of using it any more.

I surface clean the tank yesterday and boy does it look perdy! I had an investation of fruit flies, so I had to clean it, but now they are gone.

I also used up the last of my protien and calcium mix I made a long time ago, the crabs LOVE it so much. I'm going to have to make some more.

That's all for now!!

I LOST A CRAB!

OMG OMG OMG! I dont know where she/he is. I did a deep clean and could only find 6 crab babies! OMG! I am so scared. I ran my figers through the sand like, FIVE TIMES and I could only find 6 crabs! AHHH!!!! My worst fear is that one of them (its either Paisly or Pip, I haven't check since the one I found was burried and I didn't want to stress it any more by checking its gender) is outside in the compost pile where I dumped all the sand. I HOPE NOT! I don't think so, I check the sand so many times. Maybe he is wandering around in my room, I better go on an all out crab search....

But now the tank is so clean and wooh! It looks so nice. I cleaned my fishie tank, too, so its all pretty. I cleaned the bathroom and I put new sheets on my bed. I didn't get a chance to vacuum my room, though.

See ya! Hopefully I will be blogging more.

GASP!

I haven't posted in FOUR DAYS! Sheesh! Well, I have a good reason. I have been having the "o-so-wonderful" volleyball 2-a-days from 3pm-8pm! I am so tired and sore. I only have to do it two more times (thank the Lord!!!).

The hermies are well. The humidity has been settled. I figured out how to keep it pretty well stabalized. I have this small rectangular aquarium from a Barbie doll house set (its small, like an inch long) and I prop the lid open with that. :) Works pretty darn great.

Paisly went back down to molt (she switched shells!!). I think Peanut went down, too, but I don't see him.

Ttyl (probably MUCH later).

UPDATE!

Okay, I keep confusing myself. I keep wanting to call Tinfoil, Pip! So I am switching the names, Tinfoil is now Pip and Pip is now Paisly.

Humidity Trouble!

ARGH! My humidity is SO HIGH! I keep trying to find a happy medium with cracking open the tank lid. I don't know!

The cool thing about this gauge is that it tells you the high % and temp of the day and the low. So I can moditor it to see how low it gets at night. :) How great is that? I am so happy!

Only my dad is sick. :( I hope he gets better sooooooon.

New Pot!

I went to JoAnn's Fabric Store today! The outdoor pottery was on sale! (70% OFF!!!). I bought this really cool 4 pot tower thing. It works great for a hidey hut. It was on sale for $5.99 (originally $19.99).

I also got a new DIGITAL hygrometer! I got it at Meijer for $10.

Here's my pics (sorry about the flash):
