I have a question do hermit crabs vomit now now they pee from their mouth SO what if they vomit and pee at the SAME TIME
@@naga7136 DAMNNNN you got a point!
😢😮😢
@@naga7136you have a good point
"If you know where a hermit crab's urinating face pore is, let me know." Is a crazy statement out of context
Okay this is hilarious
Even in context it’s wild
I would like to buy 4 of them
I was thinking if anyone could find it, it would be him lol
Not really.... the context is contained within that sentence.
I like how the first things he does is answer the question first then explains later with no cringe intros while sponsorships are done after. Quality content at its finest.
It’s like an old kids show segment but for grownups
PBS ahh show
And kids
I thought the same thing
Biology and Anatomy with Mr. Rogers
These little piano riffs in the video really makes this whole ordeal so calming and mystical somehow. Great first new subscription of the year!
Look up "History of Japan" by Bill wurtz. I thought it was the same channel when I heard those piano jingles, and their voices are the same too!
Did you know that hermit crabs aren't even crabs they are more closely related to shrimp, lobsters, and squat crabs
now igotta quick search what Squat crabs are, and find out why Regular crabs have shunned them..
Squat crabs are a excercise
Yea, that looks about right
Don't worry, they'll become crabs eventually.
It's like killer whales, which are more closely related to dolphins
So that’s why they look similar to shrimps and lobsters
Fact: Hermit crabs actually need to change to a bigger and bigger shell as they grow. They don't use the same shell in their lifetime.
Yes, and they are known to line up in groups and swap shells,.
@@jonasg.bisgaard1086 But the only Hermit crabs I saw were the Mediterranean Hermit crabs. Those never lined up.
@@corabonnici6477maybe they weren’t changing shells or they didn’t want to line up
One species outgrown a need for shells
The coconut crabs
They are the ones hunting for seaguls
Not the other way around
i thought everyone knew this
I used to own hermit crabs. They’re just like little Lobsters with shells.
Hermit crabs can range to different sizes. Btw a hermit crab pees about in the middle botttom of the face or in the middle of the face
I believe we seen it. It was but yellowish i think?
Fun fact:
Sometimes, hermit crabs will line up next to a big shell when they outgrow their own shell and they will line up from biggest to smallest. They will trade shells, the biggest one (front of the line) will discard their shell and will take the bigger shell infront of them. This continues down the line until the last one gets their new shell, and then they just discard their shell on the beach.
Sometimes a row of hermit crabs will line up according to size, and then exchange shells down the line.
Man is talking to me like I'm a 5 year old
Yes, and its wonderful, isn't it?
No @@laurenprosser509
@@laurenprosser509yeah
Sshh listen or you'll go in the naughty corner
It’s comforting imo
Well done. People have commented on the sound design. It is brilliant, and your presentation style is throughly chill. Simple without being condescending. Thank you.
Lowkey wish youd make longer videos because your voice is so soothing and your one of the only CZcamsrs i can fall asleep to
The Mr.Rogers background music brings me back to childhood.

Mr.Rogers
You're not even old enough zoomer
Who always poops at home?
Hermit crabs: “meee”
Not in the bathroom, but in the middle of the living room...them scoop with the hands...
You know that one meme where there's a dude who lifts up another's mask and after seeing what's underneath says, "Let's keep this on..."
That's how I feel about this Hermit Crab.
this is so interesting. i wonder what would happen if a crab never found a shell. would they be able to survive without it?
as long as nothing ate it I don't see why not
Due to the amount of plastic debris in the oceans, a lot of hermit crabs have been using plastic bottles and things like that as shells. They aren't as strong of course as regular shells, but hermit crabs have been adapting pretty well to our destruction of their environment.
Is like they dont give a f
I had watched a video in the past of wild hermit crabs, and how they can end up baking out in the sun if they don't find a shell replacement soon. So I guess they have trouble with exposure to the elements without one.
i suppose no with predators and stuff
I love how you kept going “but I was wrong”
Love watching a video where someone is honest
Always love your videos. That "Mr. Rodgers science segment" style is spot on. Keep it up.
the larvae don't just "float like plankton", the ARE the plankton, zooplankton ofc, among all the other larvae of other crustaceans etc
This feels like very nostalgic. Like in my early elementary school days when the teacher would wheel out the box TV or projector to put on a science documentary.
I just shat my pants 🗿
I just broke a knee 😬
I just went bald🙃
holy shit 🗿
😳
My water broke
Ive been having my pet hermit crabs for around 4 years now, and through the years ive learned a lot about them, so you cannot believe the excitement i had when i found out that oddanimalspecimens made a video about them lol
“How important is a hermit crabs shell”
I didn’t realize I would find such a lovely channel! I love animals and you are taking it to a level I didn’t know I needed. Thank you good sir
Midnight and I'm watching a relaxing video about hermit crabs. Idk how I got here but I'm cozy.
Love the whole look and feel of your videos… the filing.. the cute piano music.. nailed it!
Absolutely wonderful, thank you. I was already familiar with a lot of the info, but I really appreciate the great photography of the specimens. The way the egg clutch is held, that was new to me!
I might even consider checking out the sponsor, some assorted boxes of stuff doesn't sound terrible.
I stayed and watched the ad because you asked so nicely. I also now know about urinating face pores. Neat!
I am so thankful for youtube algorithm recomendation, this is my new favorite channel! Amazing videos!
Man, the production quality out there is outstanding
Hermit crabs are such spooky creatures. I was always terrified when my grandson's hermit crab would leave its shell.
Reminds me of my childhood. Just sitting their watching these calming shows.
You have all the answers to my question regarding the animals thanks! 🙏🏽
Now I need a video about sea snails.
You’ve restored my love for learning.
These Videos remind me a lot of segments in the German TV Show "Die Sendung mit der Maus". It's a very simmilar vibe with the calm, well explained educational content with a narrator
yes a calming video after a stressful exam
That crab in the thumbnail looks like a croissant 🥐
This channel is sooo much fun! ❤
I really like learning about ocean animals and aish to study them when im older so i wish tat you make more videos of sea animals
The best educational channel I've seen on CZcams so far. You are a really talented narrator and teacher. Also thank you for being neutral in terms of evolution/creation question. That professional approach is what BBC and others really lack.
I was told I was never supposed to take the shell off manually, always let them do it
I can see why. Not only would trying to remove a living crab from its shell probably stress it the hell out, but you might strain its uropods in the process. I can only imagine that it'd be hard to keep a new shell on with injured uropods.
I had one before as a pet when i was a kid .. I like ur channel u explain everything good and ur voice is nice ur good with this and speaks perfect..have a bless day U have new subscriber
This video is so cool. I literally watched the whole sponsor
As a kid I played with hermit crabs at the beach. They were small and lived in shells from ocean snails. The crabs were black, orange, brown and white.
5:57 "but AGAIN, I was wrong!"😂
*fun fact: coconut crabs are a type of hermit crab* once the juveniles reach a certain size they ditch using shells as protection for the rest of they're life
Bro you're like the Kratt brother's version of Mr Rodgers Neighborhood. Complete with piano sounds and everything, except youre teaching about animals. So cool.
Thank you a lot for the information about this fantastic animal.🦀🦀🦀
Hermit Crabs pee via glands at the base of their antenna, near the eyes.
Can you please tell which books you refer. I'm dying to give it a read.
That sea snail looks like hes trying to tell a joke without cracking up.
when i was a child, i had a couple hermit crabs. one day, i looked into their habitat to find one of my hermit crabs dead, pale, and out of its shell. i was traumatized for a while.
We had clear glass shells for our hermit crabs. They didn’t seem to mind.
What a master of science outreach man!! The best!!
The specimens look very fresh- how old are they? Are they recently deceased or just very well preserved? Wet specimens? If so, how do you prevent them from falling apart? Would really appreciate an answer, Thank you!!
Love your video! I've been researching these tiny critters and this video is so helpful. I've looked HIGH and LOW for a picture or video of a aquatic hermit crab with a view of his "belly" side especially with him/her halfway in their shell. Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction?
i was lucky enough to witness a hermit crab swap meet in a beach in Brazil
This is so so and informative. Thank YoU
Is it possible for u to show us all the skulls you have ever had a chance to see? btw, i love ur content, since it teaches me all kind of stuff about biology
Amazing video. So much information.
Wait, that's a hermit crab? I used to play with those when I was a kid and had no idea what they were.😂 We lived in a remote and they comes after heavy rain.
i used to have hermit crabs as pets they’re so cute
I've always wondered why they're called hermits when they're really more like squatter crabs.
I really enjoy the style of production you have chosen. The relaxing piano reminds me of Zelda (botw). Sometimes it helps me sleep, but I also enjoy learning something new. Thank you for all the good work.
Your presentation style reminds me of Mr Rogers. Very calm and relaxing to listen and watch, and music accompaniment.
The whole piano beat to this video makes seem like a kids show 😂
That's actually so awesome
“It would mean a lot to me if you sat through this short add”
Pffftt dude I’m watching all your videos start to finish. Pfft some people just won’t understand the effort and how amazing your videos are, pfftt I’m watching them all because I love animals, you’re giving us so much knowledge and you’re adorable. Pfftt. (American dad reference work the pfffttss at everything lol)
I don't know if this is just coincidence or CZcams is scanning my games, because i started playing Another Crab's Treasure, and it raised some questions.
Do you have a Gulper Eel Specimen?I really wanna see one...How do their Jaws work?
When I was little I picked one up on the beach then it fell out of its shell and I screamed so loud and I was so confused and scared
Seening that snail shell removed… I always thought it was fused to the body
Good video man keep going
Give him back his pants >:(
I think you make excellent content, but seeing dead hermit crabs made me sad. When I was a kid I spent a lot of time at tide pools watching them, and they always seemed so curious and sociable with one another.
We all have a little hermit inside of us!
Thanks JRoc!
The music got me 💀
can you make a video on cuttlefish? they're my favorite cephalopod.
That sea snail is happy to be used for educational purposes
“Hermit crabs urinate out of their face-“ oh we’re not so different after all
Your channel is brilliant
Bro is the Bob Ross of zoology
The urinating face pore line gave me strong hugbees vibes, in a good way!
The pores are at the base of the hermit crab antennae, near the eyes.
Hermit crabs in a party: pizza pasta put in a box
I just realized that David Cronenberg’s *The Fly* was based on a hermit crab. The more you spew.
Cant you see what they look like out of their shells when theyre alive since they change shells?
Skull identification speed run back when?
Are steamed hermit crab any kind of good eating?
I love your Jaques hat!
1:34 is there a full background song at this part?
Are the piano jingles samples or do you make them yourself?
Where does he get his sound effects from?
It look llike a croissant lol. Nature is amazing and hilarious at the same time
QUE INTERESANTE! FINALMENTE RESPUESTA A PREGUNTAS QUE SIEMPRE ME HICE EN MI INFANCIA.LE LLAMABAMOS "COBITOS" A ESTOS CANGREJITOS

This little guy completely destroys the evolution theory
I watched the whole video with no ads😌
