my hermit crab i think is sick. has been for over a week and is still not dead. that is why i am posting. i honestly thought he would die in a day or something. He is not moving much just lieng on his side kind of and thats about it. I drop water on him once or twice a day to keep him hydrated. I was wondering if n e 1 knows wht is wrong and can help cause he's been alive for over a week like this. i dont think he's eating to cause he didnt move. Since he's trying his best to be alive im trying to hlep him. if u can help i would appreciate it. first he was stuck on his back not moving with his claws up word. then our other hermit crab whos a baby one pushed him back on his front side after a day or to. then he was standing for maybe a day. now he's on his side kind of standing like colapsed but still alive. the other baby hermit crab stays right next to him. if you can help thank you. he moves his claws a little if u drop water on him and his antenna. thank you again in adavnce.

I have no idea!!! I'm sorry that you're distressed. I will hope for the best. The reason that made ma comment was I noticed that after a while some hermit crabs become attatched to others. I had two and when one died the other one got depressed, I could tell he wouldn't interact with the new friend I bought him and would huddle with the old one's shell. It was sad. The attatched one later died and although I was sad I was happy for him.
