Awhile back it was thought to be rare to hear a hermit crab chirp in captivity..now however it would seem they are talking more.. What are they crying for? World peace? To end poverty? We wont know..well at least not right away. We know hermies chirp when there is a fight in place but also they seem to chatter to eachother when agression isnt the case.
Infact we dont even know where the sound comes from! Maybe we shouldnt bother finding out..it adds intrigue to this lovely creature.
Here is a WAV. file of Cherebitte, my late hermit, having a bit of a chirp whenever he was rudely awoken. I think this is probably swearing in crab language!!! lol! ;) Cherebitte Croaking |
