Exotic Land Hermit Crabs Debut A paradigm shift is happening

Today was Exotic Land Hermit Crabs official Grand Opening of their online store.

Bob Wampler  is the founder and Director of Operations for Exotic Land Hermit Crabs. Over a year in the making, he and his family have dedicated the time and resources necessary to develop a land hermit crab import facility that is unparalleled.

ELHC has developed relationships with collectors from around the world and offers an amazing variety of exotic land hermit crabs. They have exclusively introduced several species for the very first time in the United States and have discovered species that have never been seen before.

We at The Hermit Crab Patch have always believed that the only way to offer healthy hermit crabs to our customers is to keep them in the proper conditions where they have the ability to bury and molt when they need to, and to wait until each crab has had a successful molt with us before offering them for sale. This philosophy is what makes us unique and our Coenobita clypeatus hermit crabs the healthiest available.

Likewise, Exotic Land Hermit Crabs has adopted this same philosophy becoming the first importer ever to house hermit crabs in an environment that allows them to bury and molt at will. It is their goal to change the paradigm of how hermit crabs are kept once they are brought in from the wild. By allowing their exotic crabs to bury and molt before selling them, they ensure that each crab is healthy before going to its new home.

This is especially critical in an online business because of overnight shipping costs involved. Stressed crabs that have been prevented from burying to molt; often continue to deteriorate, drop legs and/or claws and usually die. From a monetary standpoint alone...if you have to pay overnight shipping online, why not pay it once and feel confident that your crabs will be as healthy as possible?!

It is time to raise the status of these highly intelligent and beautiful creatures from being a novelty gift to the lifelong companions they can and should rightly be. Proper care at each level...collecting, wholesale and retail is critical to prevent the damage that so many of us have witnessed and ultimately results in death.

If you are in the market for exotic land hermit crabs... there is only one place you should buy from. Please help support the effort of Exotic Land Hermit Crabs to provide the finest and healthiest exotic land hermit crabs available.

Welcome ELHC!
