Foraging toys for curious crabs!
I got the idea for this store while preparing a presentation on enrichment for CrabCon 2020. It occurred to me that while a well-set up hermit crab tank has quite a bit of enrichment already, there were not many options for cognitive enrichment - mental stimulation that offers the chance to solve problems. While hermit crabs are not quite the same as dogs, all animals deserve a variety of enrichment options to improve their lives with us. Plus, it's fun for us humans too! :)
So, I decided why not start a store myself! I've been very interested in animal enrichment for over a decade, and it's one of my favorite parts of animal care. I have so many ideas for unique ways to offer food for hermit crabs that will provide different interactions compared to feeding from a dish on the substrate. Plenty of my items can be used for a multitude of purposes as well, including hides, climbing, and more. It's up to you how you want to use your Pinchy products!
As I'm just getting started, there are only a handful of items for now, but stay tuned! I'll be developing & adding even more fun toys soon. I can't wait to share all of my cool plans with you and your crabs! Thanks for visiting Professor Pinchy's Puzzle Emporium!
