These shells were picked with the Captive Bred Hermit Crab babies in mind! They are usually much smaller than wild caught crabs.

Hermit Crabs require at least 3-5 extra shells for them to change and grow into. The offering of shells should be a collection of those of the same size the hermit crab is currently using and also a few sizes larger.

Josh's Frogs only ships shells without holes or other damage that would make them unusable. Our shells are all-natural, no paint or clear coating, for the safety of the animal.

This selection of shells includes:

• ¼” opening: Periwinkle
• ½” or smaller opening: Nassa
• ¼” - ½” opening: Nutmeg
• ⅜”+: Chestnut
• ¼” - ½”: Rock Shell, Babylon or Candy Cane
• ¼” - ½”: Green Turbo
