Day One: Crab Drop!

The first day of the Hermit Learnit experiment was a great success! We got a little nervous at the last minute...what if the crabs didn't go anywhere, and just stayed in the middle chamber the whole night?

But that is NOT what happened! The crabs took off right away! Home Run crawled over to the corner and burrowed down in the sand. Range took off down one of the tunnels. Mr. Crabs took his time getting motivated, but he finally went exploring too!

Mrs. Derringer came back to check on the hermies a couple hours after their "drop" to make sure everyone was ok, and she found that the hermies had already started enjoying their new hides!
