I have my Strawberry!! - Now with Pics!

[ramanth]

Thanks all! I much prefer the look of the natural shells to the painted.

I think painted shells came about as a way for vendors and pet stores to charge more.

If not done right, the paint can chip, the hermits might eat the paint chips and then get very sick. Just not worth the risk to me.

How many different varieties are there?

Seven that I know of.

I love their eyes lol. Do they pinch a lot? I think I'd be scared to hold one lol.

What a beauty! I didn't realize they came in colors. If you two keep it up, I'll be wanting one!

They can pinch, but I try not to give them a reason too. Sokka is a notorious pincher, so I don't hold him very often.

Berry Sweet is just that.... very sweet. She uses her legs to grip my hands and fingers when I hold her. Not a single pinch yet.
