A+Birthday+Crab


 * On my birthday about 3 years ago, I got a very,//very// unusual birthday present from one of my friends. When I opened it, I was SO surprised! Can you guess what it is? It has 8 legs, it has pinchers, and it can live in water. Do you give up? Well if you do, its a hermit crab! Its name was Crabby Haylee and it died a couple months ago. It died because when it was molting it couldn't find a shell that could fit her body as well as her first one, but before she started molting I was playing with her on the table and all of a sudden SHE FELL OFF THE TABLE! I started crying because her leg fell off but luckily she has 8. When her leg fell off I kept it for a while until my mom figured out I still had it so she made me throw it away. I freaked out because thats all I had left to remember her by. When she started molting I brought her to my friends house (the friend that gave it to me) and asked her what I should do and she said "You always need to keep her moist spray her everyday when she gets dry and when she finds the shell thats fits her best, she wont molt for awhile". So I said "Thats going to be really hard!"**
