Question
My hermit crab Remy Jane lost 3 legs and her big claw is she going to be all
wright please help me im only 11!

Answer
Remy Jane may be sick, I am afraid. Losing that many legs may be a sign of illness, which may kill her, you can attempt to help her by dipping her briefly in water that has Stress Coat in it, it HAS to be stress coat, you can find it at the pet store usually, this may clam her and help her heal. If she is not sick, you may want to look at her habitat, there may be something that is not good for her, like a low temperature, or not enough humidity or enough room etc.
