Awesome! I love crabs! When we were in South Padre Island in April, the beach was just crawling with them at night. I think they are cute.

Wow. That must have been an awesome sight.

I can't get over how easy these things are to handle. Both my son and daughter have been handling it with no worries. It's not agressive at all. It uses the claws for balance when being held. I was expecting it to clamp down on me.
