Hello there,
I haven't owned hermit crabs for too long now, just under a year, but they're really awesome little pets, and your blog was very informative. I also love your crabitat setups.
I wasn't sure if you'd heard about this, but I wanted to mention it anyways. The painted shells that you often find in petstores and such are actually quite bad for hermit crabs.
I know they look really neat sometimes, but the fact is no matter how well they're made the paint will chip eventually and the crab could injest some. Even if the paint is supposedly 'non-toxic', that's only non-toxic to humans and can still harm the crabs.
Again, just thought I'd mention it since you seem like a very well knowledged owner, you may have heard of it, but it couldn't hurt to spread the word. ^^ Here's some more info on the subject:

Anyways, again, very informative blog, I love reading about your crabbies!
We are new to this crab thing but they are cool. We will be looking to you and your site for the best care for Hewey, Dewey and Louie!!
Tori and "anonymous", thank you for your comments.
Tori I have in fact done the reading on both sides of the never-ending debate about painted shells. I think this is probably the 15th post on my website I have done now on this topic. I understand both sides of this debate. I do however leave adequate and various shells (painted and un-painted) for my hermies to change into. I thank you for your time at writing such a nice long post!
