CtryLuv's Crabbie Cove Escapee Tips
Have you ever had one of your hermies escape from the tank? I have had mine for 4 years and one day we found Bob, just nonchalantly tooling around the house like he owned it. Crabbies are very ingenious creatures and if there is a way to get out of the tank, they will find it! If you have a crabbie escape, there are a few things you can do to try to locate them.
- Check dark, damp places, such as bathrooms, laundry rooms and closets. They will try to find a place where they feel safe and where there is more warmth and humidity than anywhere else in the house.
- Place a nice smelly food that your crabby enjoys out in the open. Place it on something such as wax paper, tin foil or paper so that when he crawls on it, you can hear him.
- If you have other animals watch them. Cats and dogs are very good at knowing when there is something around that isnt there usually. If they seem to be sniffing around somewhere, or trying to get to an area they dont normally go to, check it out.
- Also check under certain appliances such as refrigerator and washers. These are dark warm places hermies might like.
- Look up high. Alot of people have found their crabbies scaling curtains and drapes. Anything you have that they can climb, check it out.
