Crabs in the Bucket

Sadly, our crabs were short lived...
Anyone surprised?  I guess taking them from their humid coastal habitat to the dry NM climate added to their shortened lifespan.  Maddy's crab Pincher kicked the bucket first lasting about 2 weeks.  When I told him, without skipping a beat he asked, "Can we buy a new one?" Obviously, he was not too attached.  Jaxson was just happy it was not his crab who died.  Unfortunately, Jax's crab Snapper joined his crab brother a week later.  We knew it was not a good sign when one of his big pinchers fell off, poor little fella.  So now we are crab free! For some being "crab free" could be a good thing! RIP Snapper & Pincher!
