Say Hello to Jeff...

[ScreamingMeemie]

he's the greatest,



He is named after Jeff Gordon because of his race car shell (previous home, he has since moved to a "new" home)

He is the reason my father now owns a kitten.

He is more fun than I ever expected a Hermit crab to be.

He loves cookies.

You should see him after a bath.

Jessie is afraid of him. :) :hi:

1. I told ya he'd wanna move into a new home.

I had hermit crabs as pets several years ago. :hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

2. He was in it in about 5 minutes...so quick, my son missed it.

Honestly, we went to grab the rest of the stuff from the car, and boom! change made. :hi: It was hard to find a shell that fit.

[GOPisEvil]

3. Yep, they don't like to be seen nekkid!

They're quick change artists! :hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

7. We saw him just as he was pulling it over his waist...

...that is, if a crab had a waist. :rofl:

[wildhorses]

4. Jeff Gordon should be proud to have a crab named after him...

now then, which one is the fastest?:silly:
:hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

8. This crab is quite fast...especially after a bath...

but his pit crew needs some work. ;) :hi:

[SeattleGirl]

11. Ah yes, many a race has been won or lost in the pits.

Pit crew needs to be extra sharp! Jeff is a cute little thing, MrsG! :hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

13. Hi SG!!!

:hi: How are things going? I've missed you! :hug:

[SeattleGirl]

18. Missed you too, MrsG!

Things are going pretty well. Don't know if you read my thread from the other day, but I quit smoking -- today is DAY FIVE! Woohoo!

Good to see you! :hug:

[Deja Q]

5. Hello! Just don't get crabby, you chose to move out of the mobile home!

:rofl:

Cute little guy. :thumbsup:

[ScreamingMeemie]

9. I know it sounds silly, but I'm becoming almost as attached to him

as to our furry guys. :hi:

[Kajsa]

6. He looks very cool.

Hi Jeff! Hope you like your new home.

I had no idea they like cookies and baths.

Wow- the things you learn in DU!

;-) :hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

10. I didn't know it either, until we looked up hermit crabs on the web.

They even get attached to their humans. :) :hi:

[LaurenG]

12. Aww that is too cute

"They even get attached to their humans". :hi:

[merh]

20. Hey MrsG!

Jeff looks like a happy fella.

They do make neat pets, I have a friend that has had her hermit crabs for years and they get excited when she comes home from work. She only let's trusted friends take care of them when she has to go out of town. She actually let's them work out by racing them. :rofl:

I hope your Dad is doing well. :hug:

:loveya:
