Question
I lost my hermit crab this morning. I don't know what to do! I need help now, it was my first one, and I loved it dearly.

Answer
Place a special stinky food treat on the floor in the middle of a large piece of aluminum foil. You will hear them walking on it to get to the food.

Are you sure it got out? Sometimes they dig down and bury themselves and you can't even see the hole!
