   thanks y’all.

   biotron: I had a pet hermit crab too. Name was "racehorse"
   He loved to eat minced meat with sour cream and potato.

   I want to thank you very deeply for letting me use one of your rocket photo. I will probably make a much better "montage" an other day but I am quite happy with this one. Feel free to do what you want with it if ever…. You may see it here.

   Racehorse!! 🙂 – brilliant!

   mine was called "Herbie", came from this beach, and appeared to love eating bacon rind, turnip and wood lice (i was not providing some kind of Mexican pastiche like you * – i was going for sensibly metered food groups) – until such time as he appeared one morning completely naked, floating upside-down at the surface, having abandoned his shell. the sight caused me much grief and guilt.

   disclaimer: i was 7 years old and hellbent on "finding interesting things", particularly from local rockpools. my ongoing Decapod Crustacean Owners Anonymous group is really very helpful – i’d be happy to take you along if you are ever over this way…

   Oh, I love that!!!! I wonder if other hermit crabs freak upon seeing the bold nakedness
