Default Hermit crab missing a claw
Hi, I just bought two blue legged hermits and when i got home i noticed the smaller one only had one claw. Do the grow back or is he a gimp for life?

He's a gimp for life. What a LOSER! He'll be mocked by hermit crabs throughout North America!

Seriously... his claw will grow back when he molts, either this molt or the next.
