Young humans love us! They say we make great pets, and they're right! I mean, yeah, we're crustaceans with 10 legs, a shell, and weird eyes. But we're friendly, like to play, enjoy being fed by hand, and we are SO low maintenance. We just need a little water and some special food (included). And our owner's cool cuz he gives us treats like bits of apple, lettuce, crackers -- even peanut butter! Yum!
We like it when kids play with us. Our owner sometimes sets up an obstacle course, or puts us in the middle of a rope circle and we race to see who can reach the rope first. Our 3.5-gallon acrylic house is awesome. It comes with gravel, a hermit hut, watering sponge, food, plastic plant, even paints and a brush for painting our shells! You also get a 16-page fact-filled booklet and a coupon to send in for two hermit crabs (for additional $12.95).
Buy us for your kids ages 4 and up. Because we're as fun as dogs -- but we won't chase the mailman!
