More help needed on crabs! This time, the odd-looking fiddler crab.
I have a pair of male fiddler crabs. Once refuses to leave its burrow (let's call him Crab-A to avoid confusion =P), the other refuses do build his own (Crab-B). The Crab-B either tries to steal Crab-A's burrow or just basks by the water pool. Winter is coming this time around so I guess it is reasonable to assume the Crab-A's hibernating (I'm pretty sure he's alive) but Crab-B is acting quite the opposite. He seems to enjoy the cold water. 0.o
Any help on the odd couple's strange behavior would be much appreciated. ^^
