Hermit Crabs - 192 pcs - Good Luck Minis®

Hermit Crabs just love their shells. But they don’t get attached, because as they grow, the soft-bellied crabs need to swap out their borrowed homes for new shells, allowing a smaller crab to take the used abode. This real estate bargain takes place in coastal waters worldwide.

History: Crabs predate dinosaurs - they’ve survived several mass extinctions and continue to flourish today. The group to which crabs belong, crustaceans, stretches back to the early Cambrian period, a time when the vast majority of phyla existing today first made their appearance. The crab extended family tree, then, is wide and tall, stretching back to the warm seas and including creatures as diverse as lobsters, shrimp, and spiders.

Scientific Name: Pagurus berhardus

Characteristics: Looking fine in their borrowed shells, these Hermit Crabs are ready to join an ocean-themed party or school unit as giveaways, study tools, or prizes.

Size: These mini Hermit Crab figures are about an inch long. Imagine putting some legs on a large blueberry to get a sense of the size.
