My hermit crabs just molted in july, and they molted again today! What is wrong? :confused:

How big are your crabs? Small crabs molt more often, mine are molting about every two months. Were your crabs missing any limbs? They will molt to regenerate limbs also.

one crab is small, the other one big. And they had all their limbs!

Lolz. Sometimes hermies just need the molt. As long as your molts are going fine, I don't believe you have any need to worry.

Remember, they have to do this in the wild all on their own. They know what they're doing. I promise.

Just keep it so their molting conditions are good and let them do their thing. The molts should slow down after a little while.

They'll live. Mines haven't molted yet. Tiny crabs
