Crab watch

Ms Fatma is baby-sitting a hermit crab this summer. A week or so ago we noticed that it seemed a bit large for its shell, so we purchased a larger one at a local souvenir shop. For the first few days, it dragged the new shell all around its tank--into its water bowl, into its food bowl--like it was introducing a new chum to the neighborhood. Well, last night, it parked next to the new shell, opening to opening. We think, maybe, it's going to move into the larger shell today or tonight.
